Product Description
St Martin's Minotaur Hardcover First Edition, copyright September 2002 with 270 pages. Peter Tremayne is the fiction pseudonym for Peter Berresford Ellis, a prominent author on the ancient Celts and author of numberous works of history and scholarship. - In mid-seventh century Ireland, Sister Fidelma of Cashel-sister to the King of Muman, and advocate of Brehon Courts, and religieuse of Celtic Churt-returns hastily from a pilgrimage to the Shrine of St. James. The news that brings her back is that her companion and friend, the Saxon monk Brother Eadulf, is under arrest for a serious crime in the neighboring kingdom of Laigin. He is to be executed the following morning. Convinced that her friend is innocent, Fidelma has only twenty-four hours to come up with evidence persuasive enough to sway the king into allowing an appeal of Eadulf's conviction. Facing a King determined to make an example of Eadulf and an old adversary of her own, Fidelma soon realizes that nothing is as it was portrayed, and behind the heinous crime is an even more shocking conspiracy.
