Publisher Description

Bermondsey Priory, 1114. A young chaplain succumbs to the temptations of the flesh - and suffers a gruesome punishment. From that moment, the monastery is cursed and over the next five hundred years murder and treachery abound within its hallowed walls.

A beautiful young bride found dead two days before her wedding. A ghostly figure that warns of impending doom. A plot to depose King Edward II. Mad monks and errant priests... even the poet Chaucer finds himself drawn into the dark deeds and violent death which pervade this unhappy place.

"A wonderful mystery collaboration by several authors. The story is tied into one abbey, and is a compendium of short mystery stories taking place over several centuries. I liked some of the stories/writing styles better than others, but thought the concept was brilliant. "

    " I enjoyed this more than the Tainted relic. A reappearance for some of the characters. The short stories being based around Bermondsey Monastrey. There was more continuity in this one. A good holiday read. "

    " Uneven, but to be expected because it's got five different authors. Still loving the concept of an object (in this case a building) that traces its way through five novellas. Found the "surprise" of the epilogue a bit predictable (maybe it wasn't meant to be a surprise?). "
