One corpse too
many
Audio book
Language: German
Brother Cadfael, the twelfth-century
herbalist and monk, has another murder to solve. This story, the second in
the series of 20, brings us to Shrewsbury Abbey, which is caught amid the
battle for the throne between King Stephen and Empress
Maud. King Stephen and his
army successfully invade Shrewsbury, and because he has been accused of
being too lenient before, Stephen orders the hanging of the 94 men of arms
captured... After the grim execution is completed, Cadfael becomes
responsible for giving the men a decent burial. With his sharp eye, he
notices that there is one corpse too many, a 95th man who was not part of
the execution...

A Narrative of the
Time of Nero, is a love story of Marcus Vinicius, a passionate young Roman
tribune, and Lygia Callina, a beautiful and gentle Christian maiden of
royal Lygian descent and a hostage of Rome, raised in a patrician home. At
first Marcus, a typical aristocratic Roman libertine of his time, has no
notion of love and merely desires Lygia with erotic animalistic intensity.
Through political machinations of the elegant Petronius he contrives to
have her taken by force from her foster home and into the decadent and
terrible splendor of the court of Ceasar, setting in motion a course of
events that culminate in his own spiritual redemption.
