In the midst of the war between King Stephen and Queen Matilda, negotiations to exchange two hostages near Shrewsbury end in bloodshed. Someone conspires to reignite the struggle between the two factions, but they have not reckoned with Brother Cadfael, a monk learned in herbs and a veteran of the Crusades.

For those who follow the Cadfael novels and enjoy historical mystery set in the Middle Ages.
