This book came from Scotland, or at least "over the pond" as they say, as my godmother brought this back for me on one of her trips over seas. This book does have a note written on the first title page from her, so I hope you don't mind. The book was alright, wasn't my fav but it was alright. Here's what it says on the back to give you a better insight into it all:
After a mild autumn, December of 1142 brings a smothering, silent blanket of snow. Thus it comes about that the guest hall of the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul is damaged, and the brothers must repair its roof before the danger worsens.
The treacerously icy conditions are to prove near-fatal for Brother Haluin. He slips from the roof in a terrible fall, sustaining such grave injuries that he makes his deathbed confession to the Abbot and Brother Cadfael. A startling story of trespasses hard for God or man to forgive emerges. But Haluin does not die. On his recovery, he sets out on a journey of expiation, with Cadfael as his sole companion. An arduous trip, it leads to some shocking discoveries, and to murder.....
