In The 1066 via Derby Brother Hermitage is once more disappointed by the moral standards of the average 11th Century killer. Stumbling through a host of conclusions, one of which must be right, surely, and a small host of extra murders just for completeness, Hermitage uncovers crime of a truly despicable nature.

An old wise woman of Derby is dead, and Brother Hermitage has been asked to deal with her. Who on earth would do that to an old wise woman in her own hovel?

Quite feasibly. Brother Hermitage just has to work out which one.
