Brother Cadfael is confounded when his own potion is used to kill his former love s new husband Gervase Bonel is a guest of Shrewsbury Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul when he suddenly takes ill. Luckily, the abbey boasts the services of the clever and kindly Brother Cadfael, a skilled herbalist. Cadfael hurries to the man s bedside, only to be confronted with two surprises: In Master Bonel s wife, the good monk recognizes Richildis, whom he loved before he took his vows and Master Bonel has been fatally poisoned by monk s-hood oil from Cadfael s stores. The sheriff is convinced that the murderer is Richildis s son, Edwin, who hated his stepfather. But Cadfael, guided in part by his concern for a woman to whom he was once betrothed, is certain of her son s innocence. Using his knowledge of both herbs and the human heart, Cadfael deciphers a deadly recipe for murder. '
