How about Mistress of the art of Death by Ariana Franklin.
The King of Med-evil England sends a request to Italy for someone to help solve a mystery of someone killing Jewish children. This is causing the Jewish community to withdraw (and withdraw it's tax's) into local keeps. The Italian monarch winds up sending a promising young student who specializes in the cause of death. But the student is a woman. Interesting historical study as well as good characters.
