Product Description
Synopsis
The ordered calm of Gloucester Abbey is shattered by the murder of one of its monks. The Abbot, ill-equipped to deal with such a heinous crime, is stunned by the Sheriff's belief that one of the monks is guilty. It is by this confusion that two Domesday Comminisioners are welcomed into the town.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well Worth Reading, 14 Nov 2004
By J. Chippindale (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Edward Marston is a very accomplished writer and a knowledgeable historian. He has the ability to weave a complex plot around an accurate representation of how life would be in the 11th century in England and make it spellbinding and interesting for the reader.
The calm of Gloucester Abbey is broken when the body of a murdered monk is found in the Bell tower of the Abbey. The Sheriff is all to quick to assume that the murderer must be one of the monks. When Ralph Delchard and Gervase Bret arrive in Gloucester they begin their own investigations into who is responsible. But the killing is only the start of trouble which threatens to over-run the whole community.
