Description
In 1141, two monks arrive in Shrewsbury from Winchester, fleeing destruction at their abbey. Brother Humilis, ill and frail, and Brother Fidelis, mute, seek refuge with the local community. As Brother Cadfael meets them, he senses a deeper connection between these brothers than their vows of obedience. As Brother Humilis's health fails, Cadfael faces a difficult test of discretion and faith as he unravels a secret that could destroy a life, a future, and a holy order. A poignant and complex mystery unfolds, one that challenges Cadfael's understanding of the world and his place within it. This novel is the 13th book in the Cadfael series by Ellis Peters.
