«Un cadáver de más» is the historical mystery novel by Ellis Peters, published by Grijalbo in paperback (302 pages, in Spanish).
In 1138, in the midst of the English civil war, the king takes the fortress of Shrewsbury and orders its defenders to be hanged. Brother Cadfael, a Benedictine monk expert in plants and in charge of the abbey's herbarium, discovers among the executed a corpse that does not fit: he did not die by royal decree, but was murdered.
Second instalment of the Brother Cadfael series; it was originally published in 1979 in English as One Corpse Too Many. The Spanish translation is by María Antonia Menini.
Aimed at readers of historical mystery and novels set in the Middle Ages.
