A beautiful copy of Treymayne's fifth book in the highly acclaimed mysteries series set in Ireland, circa 600 AD. A deaf, dumb and blind man is found standing over the bloody body of his chieftain. Sister Fidelma of Kilgore, an officer of the ancient Brehon law courts of the five kingdoms of Ireland, is given the impossible task of defending the accused. But her investigation soon threatens to expose secrets and pits her against powerful, unseen enemies. Tremayne is the pseudonym of British author Peter Berresford Ellis, who has published more than 100 books and 100 short stories. His Sister Fidelma series was so successful that it led to the creation of an international society in 2001. Signed copies of Tremayne's books are highly sought after by collectors. This true UK first is a presentation copy.
