“”"Some of the most elegant, unstilted prose being written in mystery novels . . . . A

This is the tenth chronicle of Brother Cadfael, of the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, at
Shrewsbury.
In the year of our Lord 1141, civil war over Englands throne leaves a legacy of violenceand the murder of
a knight dear to Brother Cadfael. And with the gentle bud-strewn May, a flood of pilgrims comes to the
celebration of Saint Winifred at the Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, carrying with it many strange
souls. . . and perhaps the knights killer.
Brother Cadfaels shrewd eyes see all: the prosperous merchant who rings false, an angelic lame boy, his
beautiful dowerless sister, and two wealthy penitents.
