Mara, Brehon of the Burren, judge and lawgiver, investigates the
death of a man suspected of kin-murder in this compelling medieval
Irish mystery. When Mara, Brehon of the Burren, is summoned to the
sandy beach of Fanore, on the western fringe of the kingdom of the
Burren, she sees a sight that she has never witnessed before during
her thirty years as law-enforcer and investigating magistrate: a
dead man lying in a boat with no oars. Immediately her scholars
jump to the conclusion that the man has been found guilty of
kin-murder. The Brehon sentence for this worst of all crimes is
that the murderer be towed out to sea and left to the mercy of wind
and waves and the ultimate judgement of Almighty God. But Mara
notices something odd about the body, something which arouses her
suspicions. And something familiar about the boat in which he lies.
Soon she has embarked on a full-scale murder investigation. And
gradually suspicion dawns that someone near and dear to her is
involved in the murder.
