«La confesión de fray Aluíno» is the historical mystery novel by Ellis Peters, published by Grijalbo in paperback (262 pages, in Spanish).
During a harsh winter, Brother Haluin suffers a fall while repairing the roof of the Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. Believing himself dying, he makes a confession heard only by the abbot and Brother Cadfael; when he recovers, he undertakes with the latter a journey of atonement that brings to light thwarted lovers, deceit, betrayal, revenge, and a murder.
It is the fifteenth installment in the Brother Cadfael series, the monk detective, and was translated by María Antonia Menini; the original title is The Confession of Brother Haluin.
Recommended for readers of historical mystery novels and for those who follow Brother Cadfael's investigations at the Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul.
