The last book I tried to read set at the time of the
Black Death in the Middle Ages was so depressing I had to abandon it. The
Last Hours, thankfully, was very
different.
Minette Walters is a fabulous writer. You felt that she was being true to the times
while using accessible normal English.
This has been criticised in some reviews but I think it helps the story
a lot.
The story has an inspiring heroine and an incredible
villain.
The fate of the villain is left in the balance at the
end and there will be another book – which I will be looking out for. I couldn't find out what it is going to be
called.
The Last Hours sounds interesting - have you read The Domesday Book by Connie Willis?
