My Husband reads to me every night before we go to sleep and this book was wonderful! I love stories that have happy endings and where the 'prince' gets his 'princess.' Ellis Peters is a great writer and I enjoy her Cadfael books even more than the T.V. series. Five Stars.
Format:Paperback
When her husband dies, she bestows one of her houses for a rent of only one single white rose. She is beautiful and rich with many suitors. But which one wants to stop her getting this payment and the house being reverted to her. who is behind this? The house gets violently attacked and a man is found dead there; murdered!!! Brother Cadfael has to sort out this crime of passion through his usual paths of enquiry to unravel the murder mystery.
Format:Audio Cassette
The Brother Cadfael stories really tell themselves, but I say read because even though I listen to the story, I am still reading but with my mind's eye. This story stand up on it's own, very good detail about how life was at that time, giving the people actual thoughts as well as actions. A insight into how the working man's position was although he was skilled in his trade. Also how women were looked down on, but still had to do any job multi-tasking for women has always been there but it's only recently that it has been reconnised.
Very enjoyable for either gender if a good book is wanted.
