Description
Fidelma's latest trial marriage has ended in a permanent partnership, but her upcoming ceremony is threatened by controversy. As the sister to the King of Muman, Fidelma's union is a major event in the kingdom of Ireland, with many high-ranking figures in attendance. However, not everyone is pleased with the wedding plans. A fanatical Abbot Ultan has been found murdered on the eve of the ceremony, and one of the most distinguished guests, the King of Connacht, is accused of the crime. With tensions running high and the peace of 7th century Ireland at risk, Fidelma must navigate a complex web of alliances and rivalries to uncover the truth behind the murder. As she delves deeper into the mystery, Fidelma discovers that Abbot Ultan was not the pious man he seemed to be. With her wedding delayed and the kingdom on edge, Fidelma must use all her skills and knowledge to unravel the tangled threads of deceit and uncover the identity of the killer.
