The Paths of the Air by Alys Clare

What do you do when a crusader returns with devils on his back?It is late autumn 1196. A secretive stranger arrives at New Winnowlands, and Sir Josse d'Acquin guesses that he is a returning Crusader. Josse allows him to put up in an outhouse, and seeks the assistance of Abbess Helewise of Hawkenlye to have his injuries treated in the infirmary. But then the various demons who are on the man's trail begin to turn up, and Josse realises that his mysterious guest has brought with him danger and a terrible secret.
Clare, Alys: - Alys Clare is the pseudonym of a novelist with over 20 published works. Brought up in the countryside close to where the Hawkenlye Novels are set, she went to school in Tonbridge and later studied archaeology at the University of Kent. She lives for part of the year in Brittany. In England, Alys's study overlooks a stretch of parkland which includes a valley with a little spring. The waters of this spring are similar in colour and taste to Tunbridge Wells's famous Chalybeat Spring, and it was this that prompted Alys's setting of her fictional Hawkenlye Abbey in the very spot where her own house now stands.
