Description

Within the mild Shrewsbury springtime of 1140, the night matins in the Benedictine abbey abruptly reverberate by having an unholy noise- a hunt entirely cry. Persued with a drunken mob, the quarry is running because of its existence. Once the creature breaks in to the nave to state refuge, Brother Cadfael finds herself overcoming armed townsmen to truly save a scared child. Charged of homicide and theft is Liliwin, a wandering minstrel who performed at the marriage of the local goldsmith's boy.
