ELLY GRIFFITHSA victim with no enemies. A murder with no motive. When the body of a monk is found savagely beaten in woodland near Bristol, DS George Cross discovers that nothing is known about the mans past.

His past reveals that he had no enemies, although George learns he was exceedingly wealthy, that he sacrificed it all for his faith.
