Troubled Bones / Jeri Westerson / 288 pages / R. T. Reviewer's Choice Award

I'm sorry to say that I really had a hard time getting into this books.  Perhaps because it is part of a series, character development of Crispin and Jack had occurred in a previous book.  I never felt them to real, but rather like cardboard characters.  The premise for the book is intriguing in that it is a retelling of The Canterbury Tales with Chaucer as a character and suspect.  Crispin is called to protect the bones of St. Thomas a Beckett and is drawn into the investigation of two murders.
