The Inquisitor

"I hereby record those events which took place in and around the city of Lazet, relating to the assassination of our venerable and respected Brother Augustin Duese, in the year of the Incarnate Word, 1318."

So writes Brother Bernard, an Inquisitor of Heretical Depravity, following the discovery of the dismembered body of his superior. As Brother Bernard attempts to make sense of this shocking crime he is plunged into a tangled web of deceit.

In an atmosphere of paranoia and mistrust, the investigation takes an unexpected turn when after yet another grisly murder, Brother Bernard not only finds himself becoming the main suspect for the slaughters, but also passionately in love with a mysterious woman who has a controversial connection to the deceased Brother Augustin.
