A perplexing case of murder and conspiracy in the pagan wilds of
Northern Italy
In 664 A.D., just after the events detailed in "Shroud for the
Archbishop, " Fidelma of Cashel takes a unexpected detour on her
trip home from Rome. While in the port at Genua (modern day Genoa),
Fidelma--sister of one Ireland's kings and an advocate in her
country's law courts--receives word that one of her old teachers,
Brother Ruadan, is reaching the end of his days. Determined to see
her old mentor one last time, Fidelma takes the treacherous journey
to a remote abbey in the countryside--a place where the old pagan
religion still has a hold and where even the Christians are often
in bloody conflict with each other. But after she hears her dying
teacher's last words, Fidelma's most dangerous adventure has just
begun. With one murder after the next and a vicious war in the
offing, it is up to Fidelma, alone and on her own, to unravel an
extraordinary conspiracy before it is too late.
