THROUGH A MURDERER'S EYES...Caught under the tyrannical thumb of her new prioress, Dame Frevisse finds welcome relief in leaving St. Frideswide nunnery on pilgrimage. But the road brings with it... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is probably the best in the Sister Frevisse series so far, even though we know who the murderer is from the beginning. What we discover as we read is a medieval mystery that has a great sense of time and place. We see the whole "castle keep life" as they lived it. We also see the superstition and belief in the supernatural that was so much a part of this day and age. It must have been terrible for anyone that suffered from the "falling sickness" back then since people were so afraid that that person was possessed by demons.
