Brother Cadfael, a twelfth-century Benedictine monk living in an abbey in Shrewsbury, England is not only a devout man of the cowl, but also a sleuth of deadly accuracy. In addition to his official duties as the monastery's herbalist, Cadfael finds much unofficial business to occupy his time -- like solving some of Shropshire's most perplexing murder cases. From The Leper of Saint Giles, in which he must unmask the killer responsible for two dead bodies and a marriage that is never to be, to Monk's Hood, which revolves around an unexplained poisoning, Cadfael -- with the aid of Sheriff Hugh Beringar and in spite of the abbey's meddling Prior -- repeatedly proves a most resourceful detective.

In The Sanctuary Sparrow and One Corpse Too Many, Cadfael is again called upon to expose cold-blooded killers and save lives -- all while trying to honor his monastic vows. Filled with suspenseful plotting and rich in period detail, these medieval whodunits are truly crime classics. This special QPB edition features all four Brother Cadfael books adapted for television and shown on PBS in 1995 as part of it's "Mystery" series
