Title: Cure for a Quack - Caroline Roe - book
Summary :
In 1353, the sudden deaths of three healthy young people stunned the inhabitants of Girona. They believed witchcraft was the cause of these violent deaths. But for Isaac, the blind Jewish doctor and friend of the Bishop of Girona, who appeared in The Archangel's Sword, an unknown assailant poisoned the trio. Accompanied by his apprentice Yusuf and his daughter Raquel, he began a race against time to prove that behind the apparent diabolical illness, there was in fact a relentless and devious artist. With this second investigation of a particularly original hero, Caroline Roe offers a colorful portrait of 14th-century Spain and ranks among the foremost heirs of Van Gulik and Ellis Peters in the art of historical thrillers.
