Summary
As the autumn storms of 1271 ravage the East Anglian coast, Crowner Ralf finds the corpse of a brutally murdered soldier in the woods near Tyndal Priory. The dagger in the man’s chest is engraved with a strange cursive design, and the body is wrapped in a crusader’s cloak. Was this the act of a member of the Assassin sect, or was the weapon meant to mislead? Ralf’s decision to take the corpse to the priory for advice may be reasonable, but he is soon caught up in a maelstrom of conflict, both personal and political.
The priory is deeply divided over whether to purchase a relic - a decision that endangers both Prioress Eleanor’s leadership and the future of the hospital. Brother Thomas becomes a suspect in the murder, and Ralf must choose between loyalty to a friend and the demands of his brother, the sheriff. Meanwhile, the murderer watches and waits.
Priscilla Royal grew up in British Columbia, earned a degree in world literature from San Francisco State University, and worked for the federal government in various positions. She is a member of the Mystery Writers of America, California Writers Club, and Sisters in Crime. She lives in Crockett, California.

Enjoyable story set in an interesting period of time
Narrator excellent and gives each character their own voice. However Prioress too young for such wisdom and whilst historically pretty accurate the constant reference to God’s mercy is somewhat tiring. Interesting storyline regarding relics.

Starts well but fades
Great start . Ran out of steam. Despite clear and well paced narration found it annoyingly harsh and sounded too old to be the voice of a young Abbess.
