Tremayne continues to confound with twisted plots and multiple murders. Fidelma is sent by her brother King Colgu to negotiate the establishment of a Christian church in a remote mountain enclave resistant to the new faith. On the way there with her companion Brother Eadulf, they come upon what appears to be the pagan ritual murder of 33 unfortunate victims. Fidelma is determined to investigate and fulfill her task before returning to her brother but only encounters more mysteries to puzzle her. Things take a turn for the worse and the stakes are raised when she finds another dead body and is herself accused of murder.
