Potter's Field by Olafur Gunnarsson

Medieval monk Brother Cadfael digs for clues when a body is unearthed by a plow: His detecting talents are as dazzling as ever (Publishers Weekly).

When a newly plowed field recently given to the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul yields the body of a young woman, Brother Cadfael is quickly thrown into a delicate situation. The field was once owned by a local potter named Ruald, who had abandoned his beautiful wife, Generys, to take monastic vows.

Generys was said to have gone away with a lover, but now it seems as if she had been murdered. With the arrival at the abbey of young Sulien Blount, a novice fleeing homeward from the civil war raging in East Anglia, the mysteries surrounding the corpse start to multiply.

This beautifully written tale of medieval detection ranks with the very best in the series. --Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine
