The Sanctuary Sparrow : 7 Paperback / softback
by Ellis Peters
Part of the Cadfael Chronicles series
Paperback / softback
Description
In the gentle Shrewsbury spring of 1140 the midnight matins at the Benedictine abbey suddenly reverberates with an unholy sound - a hunt in full cry.
Pursued by a drunken mob, the quarry is running for its life.
When the frantic creature bursts into the nave to claim sanctuary, Brother Cadfael finds himself fighting off armed townsmen to save a terrified young man.
Accused of robbery and murder is Liliwin, a wandering minstrel who performed at the wedding of the local goldsmith's son.
But his supposed victim, the miserly craftsman, is still alive, although a strongbox lies empty.
Brother Cadfael believes that Liliwin is innocent, but finding the truth and the treasure before Liliwin's respite in sanctuary runs out may uncover a deadlier sin than thievery - a desperate love that nothing, not even the threat of hanging, can stop.
