Publisher's Notes
Sister Fidelma and her companion, Brother Eadulf, journey to a remote Irish valey whose inhabitants still adhere to ancient Druidic traditions, only to become embroiled in an investigation into the brutal murders of thirtythree young men, who may have been the victim of pagan sacrifice, or a more sinister conspiracy that could threaten seventhcentury Ireland.

The Prioress' Tale
by Margaret Frazer
After Domina Alys was made prioress, St. Frideswide's became nothing more than a guest house for her relatives, the Godfreys. There was less and less peace to be had anywhere -- especially for Sister Frevisse. Constantly tormented by Domina Alys, Frevisse was further dismayed to discover that St. Frideswide's modest stores were being depleted by the Godfrey clan. And when a long-standing family rivalry began with a kidnapping and ended with murder, it was up to Frevisse to rid the nunnery of its unwelcome -- and deadly -- guests . . .
