«El novicio del diablo» is the historical mystery novel by Ellis Peters, published by Grijalbo in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
In the autumn of 1140, the Benedictine abbey of Shrewsbury receives Meriet, a novice whose behaviour is so disconcerting that some believe in diabolical possession. The charred corpse of a high ecclesiastical dignitary also appears, and Brother Cadfael, certain of the boy's innocence, seeks the link between the two events.
The eighth instalment of the Brother Cadfael series, translated by María Antonia Menini, was originally published as The Devil's Novice (1983).
For readers of medieval crime fiction and historical mysteries with a monastic setting.
Edith Mary Pargeter, also known by her pen name Ellis Peters, was an English author of works in many categories, especially history and historical fiction, and was also honoured for her translations of Czech classics. She is probably best known for her murder mysteries, both historical and modern, and especially for her medieval detective series The Cadfael Chronicles.
