Blood In The Parchment (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789659310449)

Toledo, Spain, 1193

Rebecca DeToledo thought she had made peace with her family's betrayal-until her estranged cousin begs her to investigate troubling events at their joint vellum business. She refuses to help. She wants nothing to do with the family that shunned her.

Then, a worker at the DeToledo vellum workshop is found dead.

Sir John of Hampstead has seen death before, but the body pulled from a vat is something else entirely. As the city's Head of Investigations, John knows this was no accident.

His orders are simple: find the killer, keep the peace, and-by Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine's personal command-protect Rebecca DeToledo. Easier said than done. Rebecca is fiercely independent, and far too willing to put herself in the way of danger. And the deeper they dig, the more enemies they uncover: rival merchants, bitter ex-employees, and a prospective groom for Rebecca, who might be spying for the enemy.

When a second body falls- far too close to home-John and Rebecca must move quickly. The killer isn't just covering their tracks...they're hunting anyone who dares get too close.

Perfect for fans of medieval whodunits, slow-burn partnerships, and strong female leads who challenge the rules of their time.
