Death by Misadventure is a humorous historical mystery with a sapphic subplot, in which a sixteenth-century English coroner investigates the suspicious death of a naked man found beneath a local village’s waterwheel.

Navigating incompetent witnesses, an escapee eel, and a missing body part, the coroner discovers that a young housemaid may hold the key to solving the case.
