Oswald de Lacy, Lord of Somershill, sits at his mother’s deathbed. Before she dies, he must make a confession. He needs to tell of the days when he was eighteen years old, the third, disregarded son of the family, sent off to become a monk, working in the infirmary while plague raged outside the monastery. Of how he was sent to a nearby village and witnessed the death of a local girl, and how he swore to investigate – and how he was drawn into a crime so dark and terrifying, it haunts him – and his family – still.
