Book VII in the Chronicles of Brother Cadfael.
Sudden drama strikes the Benedictine monastery at Shrewsbury when a young man, pursued by a lynching mob, claims sanctuary just in time to save his own life. The accusation is robbery and murder: yet Brother Cadfael senses his innocence and sets out to solve yet another tangle of human passions where love - both its brighter and darker aspects - plays its inevitable part.
Now a major TV series starring Sir Derek Jacobi, this book is a new mystery from Ellis Peters, recipient of the Crime Writers' Association/Cartier Diamond Dagger Award.
