pickBr. Eadulf & Fidelma of Cashel are enroute to meet up with a childhood friend of Eadulf‘s,Br.Botulf,who is at Aldred‘s Abbey.When they arrive,they find Br.Botulf has been murdered.Ghosts lurk in the Abbey, & the evil murderer of men,the Abbott Ciln,is terrified of them.He is slowly going insane by the hauntings.
Em is not impressed with this tale.I found Eadulf to be rather unlikable-he was grouchy, irritable,arrogant.

Home today due to allergies- lucky me, I am a reader!
pickA monastery seems to have been deserted by its monks during the evening meal, with no sign of why they did so. Sister Fidelma and Brother Eadulf, driven ashore in South Wales on their way to Canterbury are asked to investigate while the local Brother Meurig investigates the nearby rape and murder of a young woman.
Again, I fingered an accomplice as the murderer quite early on, but I had no idea how all the different events were tied together.
pickSister Fidelma decides to go on a ship bound for the Shrine of St. James in an attempt to contemplate her commitment to the Irish Celtic Church, & her relationship with the monk,Eadulf.On board there are complications: her first love who broke her heart at 18 is aboard,violent storms & near shipwreck occur, & a series of murders intrude on her thought process. In the next book, Our Lady of Darkness,once on land Fidelma receives a harrowing note ⬇️
Of these 3 books from my #TBR, I settled on Vera for my before bed read tonight. An Altar in the World I began yesterday. #NFNovember. Act of Mercy is for another day. #mysteryofAncientIreland #SisterFidelma

Good night my friends,ending this challenging, heartbreaking day. ❤️
I scored several old Sr.Fidelma Mysteries #mysteriesofAncientIreland through Thrift Books.Sipping my Labor Day morning coffee while enjoying what feels like an autumn day in my porch! Coldish breeze, the temp is 69. Barely a cloud- bright blue skies. I plan to walk afterwards. #porchlife #LazyLaborDay #coffeeandbooks
pickAnother compelling tale in this series.A monk disappears with ancient relics from the Abbey of Imleach.There is an assassination attempt on her brother,the king of Muman. Are these two events linked?As advocate of the court, Sister Fidelma,aided by her friend,Brother Eadulf,investigates.A convoluted & confusing investigation proceeds.Fidelma eventually suspects there is an unknown faction that wants both the relics & her brother‘s kingship.
