The Seventh Trumpet

In Peter Tremayne's The Seventh Trumpet, set in Ireland in AD 670, Fidelma of Cashel is called to investigate the murder of an unidentified young noble. As a skilled advocate of the Brehon Law Courts, she is joined by her companion Eadulf to uncover clues linking the victim to escalating violence in the region, allegedly incited by a fanatical figure. With limited evidence and a web of intrigue involving a murdered priest and a militant abbot, the stakes rise dramatically when Fidelma is abducted, prompting Eadulf to race against time for her rescue and the truth behind the murder.
