A murder close to home leaves Athelstan with his most dangerous case yet...
After the discovery of three savagely murdered bodies in his parish, Brother Athelstan finds himself involved in the hunt for a dangerous killer.
It is clear that two of the victims, a prostitute and a preacher, surprised an assassin who was then forced to kill them.
But who the third victim is, and why someone has gone to so much trouble to kill him, remains a mystery.
And can it really have any connection with Sir John Cranston's attempt to save a women unjustly accused of stabbing a clerk?
Brother Athelstan returns in the ninth exciting mystery thriller in Paul Doherty's brilliant series, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, E. M. Powell and Rory Clements.
Paul Doherty was born in Middlesbrough in 1946. He was admitted to Liverpool University where he gained a First Class Honours Degree in History and won a state scholarship to Exeter College, Oxford. While there he met his wife, Carla. Paul worked in Ascot, Newark and Crawley, before being appointed as Headmaster to Trinity Catholic High School, Essex, in 1981. The school has been described as one of the leading comprehensives in the U.K. and has been awarded “Outstanding” in four consecutive OFSTED inspections. All seven of Paul and Carla's children have been educated at Trinity. Paul has written over 100 books and has published a series of outstanding historical mysteries set in the Middle Ages, Classical Greece, Ancient Egypt and elsewhere. His books have been translated into more than twenty languages.
