King John of England and Duke of Normandy was at Rouen Castle in Normandy where his nephew Arthur was imprisoned.In a fit of temper John hit out at his nephew who fell and was badly hurt.  Leaving him in the care of monks, John and his entourage travelled back to England, to his townhouse in Canterbury.  His faithful washerwoman was preparing John's bath when she was partially drowned and then her throat was slashed, while both John and his wife Isabella were in an adjoining bedchamber.  The steward of the Townhouse was poisoned.  King John asked Templar Sir Bascot de Marins to look into the murders and find out why these two servants were killed.  Another very interesting story in the Templar series.
