A new priest arrives at Foregate but is found drowned in the mill-pond. Suspicion is cast in many directions, particularly towards a man who came in the priest's train and appears to have little religious calling. Brother Cadfael must now sort through the strands which define guilt and innocence.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Christmas, 1141 AD. A priest arrives from London to fill the vacant living of Holy Cross (the Foregate) - a man of presence, scholarship and discipline, but one who lacks the common touch. When he is found drowned in the mill-pond, suspicion is cast in many directions, not least towards a young man who came in the priest's train. Sent to work in Brother Cadfael's garden, he has attracted the friendship of a beautiful and formidable girl.

To Brother Cadfael, once worldly, now dedicated, if gently cynical, is left the familiar task of sorting the complicated strands which define guilt and innocence.
