Description

William of Lythwood returns to Shrewsbury in a coffin, marking the end of his pilgrimage. His young attendant Elave accompanies him and is determined to secure a burial place for William's body at the Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. However, Elave's presence is complicated by his own heretical views, which have previously landed him in trouble with the church authorities. When he expresses these opinions in a drunken state, capital charges are brought against him, and the beautiful Fortunata becomes a reluctant witness for the prosecution. As violence follows, Brother Cadfael is called upon to aid his friend Hugh Beringar, the sherriff, in investigating both heresy and murder.
