Squire Throwleigh’s Heir

Spring 1321. Squire Roger of Throwleigh dies in a riding accident, leaving his five-year-old son Herbert to inherit a valuable estate. The child’s grieving mother rejects him, while relatives and dependants begin calculating how his minority will alter their own prospects.

When Herbert is killed beneath a cart, Baldwin and Simon refuse to accept another convenient accident. The investigation into a child’s death uncovers competing claims to property and guardianship, leading to a conclusion that tests their assumptions about vulnerability, motive and family loyalty.
