The Confession of Brother Haluin

Edith Pargeter · first published 1988 · ISBN 9780445408555

An aging monk's deathbed confession of a youthful romance sets him on a penitential pilgrimage seeking forgiveness. Brother Cadfael accompanies him, discovering that the woman he believed dead actually survived and entered convent life under another name. A secondary murder during the pilgrimage adds complexity to this meditation on truth and redemption.
