THE ENTHRALLING MEDIEVAL MYSTERY

1419. Rumours of a deadly haunting are spreading fast through Tallinn. A prostitute, a Flemish painter and a tower watchman all claimed to see a ghost on the notorious Rataskaevu Street. All three are now dead.

Melchior Wakenstede, the famed apothecary and sleuth, is determined to uncover the truth. But one wrong move could spell death in this city rife with corruption. And as more bodies appear, Melchior's discoveries will prove more horrifying than any ghost story.
