Product Description [This is the MP3CD audiobook format.] [The Thirteenth Chronicle of Brother Cadfael] A late spring in 1142 has the monks of Shrewsbury abbey dismayed, for there may be no roses by June 22. For three years, wealthy young widow Judith Perle has rented her house to the monks for the price of a single rose each year. When nature finally complies, a pious monk is sent to pay the rentand found murdered beside the hacked rosebush. Without a rose, the monks' rental contract becomes void, adding greatly to the widow's dowry. But before Brother Cadfael can ponder whether a greedy suitor has done this dreadful deed, another crime is committed. Now the good monk must thread his way through a tangle more tortuous than the widow's thorny bushes. Peters's complex character Brother Cadfael, who applies his forensic skills in an authentic Middle Ages setting, surrounded by other monks, chivalrous knights and flirtatious ladies, has won the author critical acclaim and comparisons with Ngaio Marsh and P.D. James. (The Brother Cadfael novels inspired the PBS television series Cadfael) Review ''Brother Cadfael, in this thirteenth adventure, is as keen and human as ever. The Rose Rent is one of his most satisfactory chronicles.'' Financial Times (London)''The joys in the Peters mysteries lie in the tellingthe historical detail, the view of medieval life in town and monastery, the lively characterization, and the author's graceful, literate prose.'' Washington Post''Cosy as a teapot.'' The Times (London) ''Peters is in fine form in this thirteenth book, with a leisurely mystery that once again creates a twelfthcentury world that is both comfortable and strange and a series of delightful, interesting characters.''
