The classic Bother Cadfael tales

The story of Cadfaels entry into the monastery at Shrewsbury was known only to a few, but this book uncovers the chain of events that led him into the Benedictine Order.

These tales show Cadfael at the height of his sleuthing form, with the complexities of plot, vividly evoked Shropshire backgrounds and warm understanding of the frailties of human nature that made Ellis Peters an international bestseller.
