About Gilles of Bec and the Cage Full of Birds
In 1138, Gilles, a young monk from the great Benedictine abbey of Bec in Normandy, is sent to its estate of Stivetun in Berchescire.
His task appears straightforward: oversee the abbey’s lands and tend to the souls of its peasant tenants.
But England is in the midst of political and religious upheaval.
Naïve Gilles soon finds himself navigating powerful bishops, a stubborn village reeve, the seductive Maud of Walingeford and his elusive former mentor, Peter of Waneting.
As his sense of justice and truth draws him deeper into events beyond his control, Gilles must make choices that could determine the fate of many.
A Historical Mystery Set in Twelfth-Century England
England in 1138 provides a fascinating backdrop for a story of faith, power and personal responsibility.
As Gilles attempts to fulfil his duties, he discovers that navigating the competing interests of religious authorities, local communities and influential individuals is far more complicated than he imagined.
His encounters with powerful bishops, the village reeve, Maud of Walingeford and his former mentor challenge his understanding of loyalty, justice and truth.
For readers who enjoy historical fiction with richly drawn settings, complex relationships and moral dilemmas, Gilles of Bec and the Cage Full of Birds offers an intriguing journey into medieval England.
