Death at the School of Translators is the first book in a new series from author Esther Knight.
Toledo, 1193: A city of scholars, secrets, and simmering tensions. When Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine’s Jewish spy is found dead, whispers of treachery reach all the way to England.
Rebecca DeToledo, a gifted healer and wealthy Jewish heiress, arrives under royal orders to investigate at the School of Translators. Her mission quickly turns perilous as she faces threats to her life and a sudden battle over her inheritance.
Assigned to guard her is Sir John of Hampstead, a disillusioned crusader burdened with knowledge that could threaten King Richard’s release from captivity. Forced into this partnership, he must protect Rebecca while grappling with his own prejudices.
As they navigate Toledo’s complex alliances, where Christians, Jews, and Muslims coexist in fragile peace, they uncover a web of secrets reaching deep into the cathedral. Can Rebecca and John unearth the truth before they become the next targets?
Death at the School of Translators is an intriguing new series. It blends history, intrigue and royals. It’s packed full of slow-burning tension that makes you really want to keep reading.
It’s a great start to a new series. The writing is so vivid and descriptive that you feel as if you are right there watching the story unfold.
Looking forward to reading the next book in the series!
