   No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Natividad del señor, año 1141. El abad Radulfo regresa de Londres, trayendo consigo a un sacerdote para el beneficio vacante de la Santa Cruz; un hombre de gran pestancia, erudción y disciplina, aunque carente de humildad y capacidad de comunicación con los demás. Cuando le descubren ahogado en el estanque del molino, la sospecha se extiende en distintas direcciones, particularmente, hacia un joven que acompañaba al sacerdote, que había sido enviado a trabajar en el huerto de fray Cadfael y que estaba claro que carecía de vocación sacerdotal. Es más, pronto se atrae la amistad de una joven tan hermosa como temible.  Natt90 | Nov 11, 2022 |  The new priest for Foregate proves to have no compassion nor mercy with his obsession of his new job. When he is found dead, there are plenty of suspects. Cadfael finds little evidence to show murder yet how to prove that is complicated by lack of witnesses or was there any? (  ) walterhistory | Jul 19, 2022 | Adequate entry in the series.

In a mild December in the year of our Lord 1141, a new priest comes to the parishioners of the Foregate outside the Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. Father Ailnoth brings with him a housekeeper and her nephew??and a disposition that invites murder. Brother Cadfael quickly sees that father Ailnoth is a harsh man who, striding along in his black cassock, looks like a doomsaying raven. The housekeeper's nephew, Benet, is quite different??a smiling lad, a hard worker in Cadfael's herb garden, but, as Brother Cadfael soon discovers, an impostor. And when Ailnoth is found drowned, suspicion falls on Benet, though many in the Foregate had cause to want this priest dead. Now Brother Cadfael is gathering clues along with his medicinals to treat a case of unholy passions, tragic politics, and perhaps divine interve No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
