Synopsis "The Charter of Oswy and Leoflede - A Fenland Mystery Set in the Twelfth Century"

The Charter of Oswy and Leoflede, by which in times past the Manor of Wisbech was gifted to Ely Abbey, has been lying forgotten and gathering dust for centuries. Now suddenly, it seems, everyone is interested in it. In 1190 a wave of fire and theft begins to spread through Wisbech, bringing death in its wake. The seneschal for the Isle of Ely arrives to investigate, but the harder he searches, the more elusive the truth becomes. And everywhere heturns, the legend surrounding the ancient charter seems to follow. The vast wilderness of the medieval Fen is still untamed, and for local folk the horrors of the Norman Invasion have never quite gone away. Beneath the town that lies in the shadow of the great Norman castle runs an undercurrent of tension, where the old world battles with the new. The seneschal is about to discover how badly those old wounds fester.
