The Leper's Companions
Julia Blackburn
About a village in Suffolk or Norfolk. Starts with a modern woman who
lost someone she loved sitting in the village and then going back in
time. The book goes into the story set in 1410 and ends up
back in modern times. It would be better without this device. A good
story, very physical, full of smells and death and makes you conscious of
how close death was in those times. The leper is on the periphery but
ends up leading the group on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
