In A.D. 670, an Irish merchant ship is attacked by a pirate vessel
off the southern coast of the Breton peninsula. Merchad, the ship's
captain, and Bressal, a prince from the Irish kingdom of Muman, are
killed in cold blood after they have surrendered. Among the other
passengers who manage to escape the slaughter are Fidelma of Cashel
and her faithful companion, Brother Eadulf.
Once safely ashore, Fidelma--sister to the King of Muman and an
advocate of the Brehon law courts--is determined to bring the
killers to justice, not only because her training demands it but
also because one of the victims was her cousin. The only clue to
the killer's identity is the symbol of the dove on the attacking
ship's sails, a clue that leads her on a dangerous quest to
confront the man known as The Dove of Death.
