«To Kill or Cure» is Susanna Gregory's historical mystery novel, published by Sphere in paperback (436 pages, in English).
In the 14th century, tension between the city of Cambridge and its university erupts: landlords demand exorbitant rents and the colleges barely have any resources after the plague. A charismatic physician, with methods closer to magic than medicine, gains fame and endangers the reputation of Dr. Matthew Bartholomew, and also his life.
Thirteenth installment of the «Matthew Bartholomew» series, also known as «Chronicles of Matthew Bartholomew».
Aimed at readers of historical fiction, medieval mystery and historical crime, and at those who follow the Matthew Bartholomew series.
Susanna Gregory is the pseudonym of Elizabeth Cruwys, a Cambridge academic who was previously a coroner's officer. She writes detective fiction, and is noted for her series of mediaeval mysteries featuring Matthew Bartholomew, a teacher of medicine and investigator of murders in 14th-century Cambridge.
