Synopsis of One Corpse Too Many
En el verano de 1138, la guerra civil entre el rey Esteban y la emperatriz Maud arrastra al hermano Cadfael desde la tranquilidad de su jardín en la abadía hasta el sangriento campo de batalla. Tras la caída del castillo de Shrewsbury, Cadfael acepta la tarea de enterrar a los noventa y cuatro defensores ejecutados, pero pronto descubre con horror que hay noventa y cinco cadáveres. La presencia de un cuerpo extra revela la existencia de un asesino astuto que ha aprovechado el caos de la guerra para ocultar su crimen. Decidido a revelar la verdad, el monje benedictino sigue una serie de pistas aparentemente inconexas: una joven disfrazada de muchacho, un tesoro desaparecido y una flor rota. Esta segunda crónica de Brother Cadfael combina el rigor histórico con una intriga detectivesca clásica, donde la perspicacia del protagonista es la única herramienta capaz de exponer un corazón oscuro en medio de la agitación política de la Inglaterra medieval.
