Prophet of blood - peter tremayne

Autumn, AD 672 .

While out walking, Abbot Brocc was shocked to encounter the sinister apparition of a young woman, cloaked entirely in grey, who foretold his impending death.

Dismissing the soothsayers words, Brocc nevertheless felt concerned enough to ask for Sister Fidelmas advice on the matter.

But by the time Fidelma and her companions arrive at the remote abbey of Dair Inis, Brocc has been found dead in the abbeys sweat house - as the mysterious prophetess had predicted.

Plunged into a world of uncertainty, where believers of the Old and New Faiths are violently opposed, Fidelma, Eadulf and Dego embark on a journey fraught with danger, in a puzzling and perilous quest for the truth behind Broccs murder .

Sister Fidelma returns in Prophet of Blood , the thirty-fifth Celtic mystery by Peter Tremayne, acclaimed author of Death of a Heretic , The House of Death , and The Shapeshifters Lair .

If you love Ellis Peters, youll be gripped by Prophet of Blood and the whole Sister Fidelma series.
