Cadfael treks to Wales to gather holy relics for the abbey, but a murder during the journey may make it impossible to return home.

Seen on the PBS Mystery! series, this tangled tales stars Sir Derek Jacobi as Brother Cadfael, the intuitive crime-solving monk of medieval Shrewsbury. When a young monk claims to see visions of St. Winifred, Cadfael and a party from Shrewsbury Abbey trek to Wales to excavate her holy relics and are met with much hostility. When the main opponent to the monks' efforts is murdered, not even the holy men-who are forbidden to leave with the relics until Cadfael identifies the killer-are exempt from suspicion.

When an old baron and an orphan are to be wed, all of Shrewsbury turns out. Cadfael investigates when the baron rides off on the eve of the wedding. Also available on Amazon Prime

When a harsh and unforgiving priest is found dead, Cadfael must decide which parishioner was angry enough to kill.
