It’s fitting that the last entry in the Cadfael Chronicles take on the two sides of the Benedictine brother: his soldier past and his monastic present. Having recently discovered a son from his soldier past, Cadfael must leave his abbey, and his vows to seek his freedom.
Full of rich English history, sometimes more than bargained for, Peters provides an emotional, action-enhanced story of reconciliation and grace.
A satisfying conclusion to a unique mystery series.
