4.0

When a new priest in a local village is found dead, just how much he didn't fit into village life becomes clear.
More than any of the other books in the series, Peters details how local prejudice and tradition can cause strife and heartache.

I could have done without the Abbot sermonizing so much :-) [Re-read: yep, sermonizing was irritating, but the mystery was great!]

Ellis is starting to recycle bits and pieces of old plots.
