Description
Sir Geoffrey Randall dispatches his deputy, Stephen Attebrook, to Clun to make contact with a spy and learn about Llywelyn ap Gruffydd's plans. Attebrook is also tasked with investigating the murder of a monk found dead at the Augustine priory in Clun. As he delves into the case, he becomes embroiled in a desperate feud between the priory and the lord of Clun, revealing a forbidden love that can only lead to suffering and death. Attebrook's assignment takes him into the heart of a brewing conflict on the border between England and Wales. Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, the Welsh warlord who styles himself Prince of Wales, has united the fractious tribes of his land against the English. The English are uncertain when and where the blow will fall. As Attebrook navigates this treacherous landscape, he must confront the darker aspects of human nature and the consequences of his own actions. A Dreadful Penance is a gripping tale of loyalty, duty, and the devastating cost of war.
