Falconer And The Face Of God

It is Christmas in Oxford when Stefano de Askeles brings his troupe of jongleurs to town. Master William Falconer, meanwhile, has been scouring the back alleys of Oxford in search of an alchemist who can help his mentor, Roger Bacon, with his research. Thus it is that he witnesses the final rehearsal of de Askeles' play--and the death of an unfortunate stand-in.
