<p>In the aftermath of Magna Carta &ldquo;disinherited&rdquo; Barons raided the City of Norwich to acquire funds for their failing cause, and met with little resistance.<br />
In fear of hidden support for the rebellion the King sends agents to Norwich and thus Martin Den Helder and Sir Michel D&rsquo;Artois are drawn into a city underworld of murder, extortion and crime that has some powerful, if secret, backing.<br />
Like poking a hornets&rsquo; nest, Den Helder and D&rsquo;Artois feel the backlash of their enquiries.<br />
Finally a vicious murder at the Trinity Fair escalates the atmosphere of tension and resentment between City and Church to a full scale riot and buildings of the cathedral and city are burned, valuables looted and violence and murder unrestrained.<br />
&lsquo;Flames of Norwich&rsquo; is a story of murder and mystery woven around real events, people and places of the City of Norwich in the 13th century.</p>
