Robb’s new book The Riverwoman’s Dragon, is the 13th in her Owen Archer series. The story takes place in London in 1375, exploring the push and pull between a new physician and traditional healers and midwives at a time full of fear and suspicion.

Pacific Northwest writer and historian Candace Robb creates fiction about the late Middle Ages with two series, the Owen Archer mysteries and the Kate Clifford mysteries. You can learn more about her here.

Patricia Bracewell is also an author, with her third book, The Steel Beneath the Silk published last March. Learn more about Bracewell here.
