My favorite of the Chronicles of Brother Cadfael so far. The suspense was top notch. Even though I was pretty sure I knew fairly early who the villain was I stayed intrigued in wanting to know how the mystery would be solved, what the motives were, and if the characters I was rooting for would escape unscathed. 

Peter’s prose in this is just wonderful.
