Having left home in some disgrace, Fisk (The Last Knight) returns to help with family troubles. It doesn't boost his reputation when former would-be knight Michael shows up. With careful sleuthing, Fisk and Michael expose the truth. Bell writes with a buoyant, easygoing style, creating character and setting with economy and giving her readers a lighthearted, but also warm-hearted, tale.
