A stranger murdered in a gruesome ritual. A prophetess foretelling
the return of the ancient gods. Sister Fidelma returns in the
twenty-eighth gripping Celtic mystery by Peter Tremayne, acclaimed
author of THE SECOND DEATH and PENANCE OF THE DAMNED. PRAISE FOR
THE SISTER FIDELMA SERIES: 'The background detail is brilliantly
defined . . . wonderfully evocative' The Times, 'A brilliant and
beguiling heroine. Immensely appealing' Publishers Weekly Ireland,
AD 671. On the eve of the pagan feast of Samhain, Brother Edulf and
the warrior, Aidan, discover a man murdered in an unlit pyre in the
heart of Cashel. He has been dressed in the robes of a religieux
and killed by the ritualistic 'three deaths'. When a strange woman
known as Brancheo appears in a raven-feather cloak foretelling of
ancient gods returning to exact revenge upon the mortal world, she
is quickly branded a suspect. But in their search for the killer,
Sister Fidelma and Eadulf will soon discover a darker shadow
looming over the fortress. For their investigation is linked to a
book stolen from the Papal Secret Archives which could destroy the
New Faith in the Five Kingdoms...and Fidelma herself will come up
against mortal danger before the case is unravelled. What readers
are saying about NIGHT OF THE LIGHTBRINGER: 'The story is crisp,
the characters fascinating and the reading relaxing'
'Well-researched and well-plotted with interesting characters' 'As
with any Sister Fidelma book, utterly fantastic. A great read!'
