During the Anarchy, King Stephen takes Shrewsbury Castle and hangs 94 defenders. Brother Cadfael and comrades are called on to bury the dead, and find 95 corpses. Before Cafadel can solve that mystery, he must keep various treasures out of Stephen’s hands, and help move them on to France.

A Strong Second Helping

The second Cadfael novel iterates smartly on the first one, playing with points of view and obscuring the actual crime amongst a casual attrocity. The introduction of Hugh Beringar is a crucial addition to the series and his antagonistic debut solidly entertaining.
