About this title

Review:

Brother Cadfael at his best. (PUBLISHERS WEEKLY)

Each addition to the series is a joy. Long may the chronicles continue. (USA TODAY)

The marvellous sense of time and place carries everyone along...Cadfael at odd moments resembles Travis McGee in a cassock. (CHICAGO TRIBUNE)

From the Back Cover:

The Sixteenth Chronicle of Brother Cadfael in which William of Lythwood returns from his pilgrimage to the Holy Land, his soul at eternal peace, brought by his servant, Elave, a young man of great strength and wisdom. With him Elave also brings a treasure box, a dowry gift for William's young ward, Fortunata. What lies within, no one knows – but very shortly Elave is charged with heresy because of it and another man meets death violently. Cadfael must turn detective yet again, while the inhabitants of the Abby of St Peter and St Paul rock in the wash of passion and conflict in Ellis Peters' endless intriguing murder mystery.
