Face Down Among the Winchester Geese is the third historical mystery featuring Susanna, Lady Appleton, sixteenth-century gentlewoman, herbalist, and sleuth as the amateur detective. In this one, Susanna's husband, Sir Robert, is one of the suspects in the murders of several Southwark prostitutes (known as "Winchester Geese"). Susanna, an expert on poisonous herbs and sometime solver of crimes, sets out to uncover the identity of the real killer. Her goal is to prove Robert innocent, but as so often happens in an investigation, other secrets also come to light. Is it possible that Susanna's spouse has committed an even more heinous crime than murder? The year is 1563.Long out of print in hardcover and mass market paperback editions, this trade paperback edition has been newly edited by the author."A solid bet for historical mystery fans."
