Devil's Acolyte Tapa blanda - 2005

Información de la editorial

Amidst the myth and folklore of Tavistock, one tale above all others strikes fear into the hearts of the townspeoplethat of the murders on the Abbot s Way. One cold winter, many years ago, a young acolyte led a group of fellow novices in the theft of their abbot s wine store. Later, consumed by guilt and fear of discovery, he was driven to commit still more crimes. As legend has it, the devil himself meted out his punishment, leading the acolyte and his cohorts to their deaths on the treacherous Devon moors. Now, in the autumn of 1322, it looks as if history is repeating itself. Abbot Robert has found his wine barrel empty, and a body has been discovered on the moors. Furnshill and Puttock are called upon to investigate, but the case seems only to become increasingly complicated. It soon becomes apparent that it s not just wine that s missing from the abbeyand that the body on the moors isn t the last."
