Our Lady of Darkness (Sister Fidelma Mysteries Book 10)
Peter Tremayne, highly acclaimed author of HEMLOCK AT VESPERSand ACT OF MERCY, presents OUR LADY OF DARKNESS, the tenth gripping Celtic mystery featuring super-sleuth Sister Fidelma.
PRAISE FOR THE SISTER FIDELMA SERIES: ‘Definitely an Ellis Peters competitor’ Evening Standard, ‘This is masterly storytelling from an author who breathes fascinating life into the worth he is writing about’ Belfast Telegraph
Arriving home from a pilgrim voyage, Sister Fidelma hears that her faithful Saxon companion, Brother Eadulf, is under sentence of death for murder. She hastens to the capital of Laigin, where he is being held, determined to appeal against the sentence. The crime took place at the abbey of Fearna where Fidelma clashes with the sinister Abbess Fainder. The evidence against Eadulf seems overwhelming – can he actually be guilty? Will Fidelma’s emotional involvement blind her in her desperate search for the truth?
What readers are saying about OUR LADY OF DARKNESS:
‘Fascinating insight into seventh century Ireland, combining intrigue and excitement in equal measure’
‘Kept me on tender-hooks and could not go to bed until I finished it!’
‘An excellent mystery and informs you about the society contemporary to the protagonist’
