This story was famous for detectives. I don't know enough.
In the nineteenth century there was Sherlock Holmes; and eight centuries ago,
in the great abbey at Shrewsbury, there was Brother Cadfael. He was a monk and knows a great deal about plants and herbs.
Brother Cadfael's Penance, was published in 1994. More than half of the stories have been filmed for television,with the well known actor Derek Jacobi playing Brother Cadfael.
I advice you to be patient when you will read. This story was more long than I thought.

English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online. Teachers post regular items about teaching, learning tools, events in the school, their day to day experiences living & working in a foreign country. Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!

Keiko,
ReplyDeleteYou might be able to find some episodes of the show on "TV Shack" website. I actual never liked the show! I wonder if you can find Shrewsbury on the map & pronounce it?
Glad you enjoyed the mystery, and hope you had a good holiday?
