Description

In the year 1141, two monks have arrived in Shrewsbury after their abbey in Winchester is destroyed. Brother Humilis, who is very ill, and Brother Fidelis, who is mute, seek refuge at the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. From the moment that he meets them, Brother Cadfael believes that something deeper than their common vows binds the two brothers. As Brother Humilis' health fails, Brother Cadfael faces a test of beliefs, as he must distinguish between the innocent and the guilty. Ellis Peters (1913 - 1995) is a pen name taken by Edith Pargeter, who also wrote many books under that name. Even as a high school student, she was known as the "girl who never stopped writing." She is best known for her historical novels set in Shropshire, most particularly those with Brother Cadfael at their center. The books in the Cadfael series have become hugely successful international bestsellers and have been broadcast in many countries as a TV series starring Derek Jacobi. Ellis Peters/Edith Pargeter received many prestigious writing awards and honors during her lifetime.
