The Pilgrim of Hate

The Pilgrim of Hate - Ellis Peters

Series: Cadfael #10

 

Instead of investigating a murder at the monastery, Cadfael finds himself investigating a murder that occurred in London (from the monastery) and looking for a young man who might be connected to it since he has since disappeared. Plus more royal shenanigans.

 

Although I enjoyed the mystery in this book, I have to say that Peters's insistence on having a young couple get together in every book really stretches my suspension of disbelief here. I mean, marrying someone you met while on pilgrimage? Really?

 

I'm planning to use this as the book for door 8 (Penance Day): Read any book concerning a man / woman of the cloth.
