Book IV in the Chronicles of Brother Cadfael.
The great annual Fair of Saint Peter at Shrewsbury, a high point in the city's calendar, attracts merchants from far and wide to do business. But when an unseemly quarrel breaks out between the local burghers and the monks from the Benedictine monastery as to who shall benefit from the levies the fair provides, a riot ensues. Afterwards a merchant is found dead - and Brother Cadfael is summoned from his peaceful monastery her-garden to test his skills as a detective once more.
Now a major TV series starring Sir Derek Jacobi, this book is a new mystery from Ellis Peters, recipient of the Crime Writers' Association/Cartier Diamond Dagger Award.
