Sinful Folk - Nikki McClure, Ned Hayes

Absolutely phenomenal book about the journey of a group of medieval peasants to see the King, seeking justice for the deaths of their sons in a house fire.

 

The five bodies lie on the ground, black as broken shadows. They stink now of death. Burned flesh, scorched wool. It is a nauseating stench, yet despite myself, my mouth waters at the smell of flame-roasted meat. I am always so hungry.

 

Reading on Kindle while listening to Audible book. The narrator, Anne Day-Jones, does a superb job of portraying all the characters.
