Dead Man's Ransom

Dead Man's Ransom By 
Ellis Peters 
 
In February of the year of Our Lord 1141, men march home from war to Shrewsbury, but the captured Sheriff Gilbert Prestcote is not among them. Elis, a young Welsh prisoner, is, and he is delivered to the Abbey of St. Peter and St. Paul to begia a tale that will test Brother Cadfael's sense of justice... and his heart.
