A Murderous Procession

This is the next book in the "Mistress of the Art of Death" series, and I enjoyed it immensely. Adelia is still a wonderfully likeable character and her new adventures are as exciting as ever.

In this novel Franklin takes Adelia and her group (except for Allie and Gyltha) on the voyage of Princess Joanna from England to Palermo to marry the prince of Sicily. Of course there are many adventures along the way, and of course someone wants Adelia dead. I have to admit, I figured out who that was pretty early on, but it didn't detract from my enjoyment of the novel.

I liked the descriptions of the various parts of England and the European continent, and the people Adelia meets. And the story definitely held my interest. I continue to enjoy this series and will certainly look for next book in the future.
