Forty years ago, Exeter Cathedral close was the scene of a vicious ambush.

Afterwards, the bodies left lying in their blood bore witness to the conflicts tearing at heart of the Cathedral itself.

Today, in 1323, more deaths have occurred. Is the first an accident? The second is surely not. Murder is again polluting the Cathedral close, but this killer will not be easily caught.

The victim, Henry Potell, was feared by many, and held secrets that some wished to keep hidden...For Sir Baldwin Furnshill, Keeper of the King's Peace, and his friend Bailiff Simon Puttock, events become increasingly mysterious.
