At the height of the hot summer of 1144, the Earl of Essex succombs to a fatal arrow - but only after a lingering fever during which his officials do their best to save him from hellfire by restoring various properties he has annexed, including the abbey of Ramsey.

But when heavy rain brings the threat of floods to Shrewsbury, and the holy relics must be removed to a place of safety, the subsiiding waters revealed a robbery has been committed. So the stage is set for the masterly sleuthing skills of Brother Cadfael to be employed. But before the case is solved, to the crime of theft is added a murder...
