“Narrator Danielle Cohen reunites audiobook listeners with Fridgyth, an herb-wife who lives at a monastery…Unfamiliar medieval names could make these characters difficult to keep straight. However, Cohen solves the problem with her use of distinct voices. She gives a gentle but wizened voice to Fridgyth that will endear her to listeners.”

When an unwelcome visitor arrives at Hild's monastery, Fridgyth the herb-wife is forced to hold her tongue. The widow of the fierce Mercian king, who once brought death and destruction to the coastal community, is an uneasy sight for many. Although everyone is thankful for Northumbria's fragile peace, painful memories are still fresh and some can think of nothing but revenge.

A young tanner is found dead after a mysterious liaison—his brother is nowhere to be seen, and the boy that used to help him is terrified to speak. While the Abbess is busy trying to secure an on-going peace for the kingdom, Fridgyth starts her own investigation, though she has no idea what she is dealing with or the danger she is in . . .
