Then the body of a young child is washed up on the shores of the Thames, near where they were last seen ...The Flying Mason is the fourth book in the Pitt Family Saga which follows Gervase from his arrival in England in AD1200 to the end of King John's reign and beyond.What readers say about the Pitt Family Saga series: "The story was entertaining and I was just as eager to solve the mystery and capture the real murderer as were the characters." Roses are Amber on The Goldsmith's Apprentice."As always, there is plenty of the everyday details which make the narrative rich with interest." Tom Little on The Goldsmith's Apprentice."An interesting book, with well-researched and little-known information on the Templars in England, and mediaeval carpentry and building. Well worth reading." M.E. Jasper on The Templar Pitt."Really good read. I could not put it down. Full of information but easy to read. Can not wait to get next one." Nikki Mackenzie on The French Carpenter.
