Description

In 1350, Cambridge lies ravaged by the Black Death. Crime flourishes too—three harlots are observed with printed toes and slit throats, a friar dies rifling a strongbox saturated in school stories, and the Vice-Chancellor of the University disappears from his sick step with all its fixtures. Today the Chancellor calls about the skill of Matthew Bartholomew, Grasp of Medication. Hectic enough already with all the training and training of new methods, Bartholomew embraces the help of happy monk and portly Sibling Michael—a wise, not unnecessarily surprised by sins of the flesh.
