Description

[The Cadfael Chronicles # 17] "During the ploughing of the Potter's Field in October 1143 the grisly remains of a woman's body are unearthed. The tenant potter had only recently left there to become a monk at the Benedictine Abbey of St. Peter and St. Paul and had abandoned his wife after fifteen years of marriage. Rumour had it that the wild, beautiful Welsh woman had returned to her homeland - perhaps with a lover. Who could tell? But the discovery of the corpse on Abbey land raises all sorts of questions and ones that impel Brother Cadfael to leave the tranquillity of the herbiary in order to piece together some cryptic clues and solve a baffling crime." Printed and bound in the UK,simultaneously with the Headline edition. 248p maps. Paper age toned, else as new
