The year is 1142. England is in the iron grip of civil war, and within the sheltered cloisters of the Benedictine Abbey of St. Peter and St. Paul, there begins a chain of events no less momentous than the upheavals of the outside world.
First, there is the sad demise of the Lord of Eaton, whose ten-year-old son and heir, the young Richard, is a pupil at the abbey. The boy refuses to surrender his new powers to his formidable grandmother, Dionysia. Then there is the arrival of the hermit Cuthred, who enjoys the protection of Lady Dionysia, and whose young companion, Hyacinth, befriends Richard. Despite his reputation for holiness, Cuthred’s arrival heralds a series of mishaps for the monks. When Richard disappears and a corpse is found in Eyton Forest, Brother Cadfael is once more forced to leave the tranquility of his herb garden and devote his knowledge of human nature to tracking down a ruthless murderer.

Recensioni della critica
“Enchanting…Medieval England comes marvelously alive.”
(Washington Post)“A wonderful history lesson wrapped up neatly in a mystery and served with style and grace.”
(Cincinnati Post )“Well-plotted…Brother Cadfael remains as shrewd and unpredictable as ever.”
(Publishers Weekly)“Ellis Peters does her usual neat job of history-cum-entertainment, and Roe Kendall does an equally neat job of delivery…Her presentation has a lyric, musical quality that is quite charming.”
