Friend at Court

When Quaker Ruth Bowen returns home to reconcile with her estranged family, she does not expect to run afoul of an eccentric judge of the King's Bench and to find herself confined in Norwich Castle prison. She must solve the mystery of why a deaf maidservant was summarily dismissed from her employment and later brought up on trumped-up charges of theft and attempted murder. Can the girl be a threat to someone in that household?
