Book 3 in Penric and Desdemona series (2017)
Publisher: Spectrum
Some eight months after the events of Penric and the Shaman, Learned Penric, sorcerer and scholar, travels to Easthome, the capital of the Weald. There he again meets his friends Shaman Inglis and Locator Oswyl.
Just like in the novella Penric and the Shaman, the focus here in Penric’s Fox was around a murder mystery tale, this time involving a sorceress and demons.
When the body of a sorceress is found in the woods, Oswyl draws him into another investigation; they must all work together to uncover a mystery mixing magic, murder and the strange realities of Temple demons.
