The Secret Report of Friar Otto (Wordcatcher Historical Fiction)
Ebook (EPUB Format)
A gang of renegade knights take refuge on the tiny and remote Lundy Island off the coast of Devon. When they are betrayed, captured and condemned, Friar Otto is sent to investigate their crimes.

The original text has been turned into a beautifully-crafted modern novel, utterly convincing in its evocation of medieval England. The prisoners spend as much time goading the prudish celib…

A gang of renegade knights take refuge on the tiny and remote Lundy Island off the coast of Devon. When they are betrayed, captured and condemned, Friar Otto is sent to investigate their crimes. Confronted by dangerous ideas, Otto starts to ask himself awkward questions. His secret report is a modern reinterpretation of a 750-year-old manuscript, The Report in Confidence on the Imprisonment and Execution of William de Marisco and Sixteen of His Followers. The original text has been turned into a beautifully-crafted modern novel, utterly convincing in its evocation of medieval England. The prisoners spend as much time goading the prudish celibate with stories about 'tupping' the ladies as they do in discussing doctrinal niceties.

Über den Autor
Born 1946 Blackpool, Lancashire; but raised Stoke Gabriel, Devon, England; the whole of my adult life I've been a struggling novelist - with the appropriate number of bread-and-butter jobs - from, among many others, Merchant Navy, building labourer, scaffolder, male model, computer programmer, data control manager in Imperial College, milkman, plumber, demolition, truck driver, residential social worker, laboratory analyst, gardener, groundsman and, for the last several years, a psychiatric nursing assistant. My very last job was as a cashier in an amusement arcade. Since 2003 I've been a self-employed writer/editor/publisher.
