In this mystery in the award-winning series featuring a
twelfth-century Benedictine monk, Brother Cadfael must travel to
the heart of a leper colony to root out the secret behind a savage
murder. Setting out for the Saint Giles leper colony outside
Shrewsbury, Brother Cadfael has more pressing matters on his mind
than the grand wedding coming to his abbey. But as fate would have
it, Cadfael arrives at Saint Giles just as the nuptial party passes
the colony's gates. When he sees the fragile bride looking like a
prisoner between her two stern guardians and the bridegroom-an
arrogant, fleshy aristocrat old enough to be her grandfather-he
quickly discerns this union may be more damned than blessed.
Indeed, a savage murder will interrupt the May-December marriage
and leave Cadfael with a dark, terrible mystery to solve. Now, with
the key to the killing hidden among the lepers of Saint Giles, the
monk must ferret out a sickness not of the body, but of a twisted
soul.
