Satisfying entry in the Cadfael series, about a fellow monk with a secret, and a need to atone for it. I guessed the solution to the mystery, but it was still "good fun". (  ) fuzzi | Jan 5, 2021 |  No Hugh Beringar, not set at all in the abbey - but again the murderer escapes. FKarr | Jun 18, 2020 | hidden secret poisons the lives of two generations and leads to murder, Mystery not hard to solve but ok. 15th Caedfel ritaer | May 19, 2020 | It is a snowy winter in Shrewsbury and the snow endangers the roof of the guest hall. Brother Haluin helps in the repairs and is seriously injured. Thinking he might die, he confesses to several sins. When he recovers, he asks to make a pilgrimage of repentance and Brother Cadfael is sent to accompany the young brother. Of course there is a murder but other discoveries are made along the way. This volume could have used a map as most of the action takes place away from Shrewsbury. A welcome addition to the Brother Cadfael mysteries.

Being on his death bed, he makes a confession of an event that occurred 18 years before. If he lives he swears to do penance for the act even on his severely mangled feet.

A monk's journey of amends leads to murder in this "thoroughly entertaining medieval mystery" in the Silver Dagger Award-winning series (Publishers Weekly). Winter arrived early in 1142, bringing with it a heavy snowfall. The safety of the guest-hall roof at the Benedictine Abbey of St. Peter and St. Paul comes into jeopardy, and the brothers are called upon to effect repairs. But the icy and treacherous conditions are to prove near fatal for Brother Haluin. He slips from the roof and crashes to the ground, sustaining terrible injuries--grave enough for him to want to make his deathbed confession. The confession is heard by the abbot and Brother Cadfael; a wicked story, of trespasses hard for God or man to forgive. But Haluin does not die. On his recovery, he determines to make a journey of expiation, with Cadfael as his sole companion. It is an arduous journey, physically and emotionally, and one that leads to some shocking discoveries. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
