Sister Fidelma returns in THE HOUSE OF DEATH, the thirty-second
Celtic mystery by Peter Tremayne, acclaimed author of THE
SHAPESHIFTER'S LAIR, BLOOD IN EDEN, and BLOODMOON. If you love
Ellis Peters, you'll be gripped by THE HOUSE OF DEATH and the
Sister Fidelma series. Ireland. AD 672. The Feast of Beltaine is
approaching and the seven senior princes of the kingdom of Muman
are gathering at Cashel to discuss King Colgu's policies. Just days
before the council meets, Brother Conchobhar, the keeper of the
sacred sword, is found murdered. Sister Fidelma and her brother
Colgu fear that the killer had been trying to steal the sword that
symbolises the King's authority to rule. And as rumours begin to
spread of an attempt to overthrow Colgu, news reaches Cashel that a
plague ship has landed at a nearby port, bringing the deadly
pestilence to its shores. Amid fear and panic, Fidelma, Eadulf and
Enda must work together to catch a killer as the death toll starts
to mount... What readers are saying about the Sister Fidelma
series: 'Tremayne is one of those very few historical mystery
writers who can perplex and bewilder. He weaves the twisty plots
into a complex historical narrative' 'A must-read for anyone
looking for a good mystery' 'The characters are original, the
settings are imaginative and true-to-life and the intricate plots
form enough threads to keep you guessing at every turn'
