Reading these short stories of Brother Cadfael reminded me of why I love the Benedictine sleuth so much -- his humanity, his compassion and his commitment to what is right, even when it goes against what the great and powerful would call "justice."

How Cadfael dealt with the theft of two candlesticks from the abbey church in "The Price of Light" left me with tears in my eyes.
