Though the Abbot is pleased to accept such a gift it comes at the expense of Bonel's stepson's inheritance

Are the monk's powers of detection strong enough to lead him through the maze of clues to the truth? This is a gripping BBC Radio 4 dramatisation starring Philip Madoc as medieval monk & wily sleuth Brother Cadfael. '...an intriguing & moving story made perfect by the irreplaceable Michael Hordern as narrator'

From the very beginning Caesars story makes dazzling reading. In his late teens he narrowly avoided execution for opposing the military dictator Sulla. He was decorated for valour in battle captured & held to ransom by pirates & almost bankrupted himself by staging games for the masses. As a politician he quickly gained a reputation as a dangerously ambitious maverick. By his early 30s he had risen to the position of Consul & was already beginning to dominate the Senate. His affairs with noblewomen were both frequent & scandalous. His greatest skill outside the bedroom was as a military commander. In a string of spectacular victories he conquered all of Gaul invaded Germany & twice landed in Britain
- an achievement which in 55BC was greeted with a public euphoria comparable to that generated by the moon landing in 1969. In just thirty years he had risen from a position of virtual obscurity to become one of the richest men in the world with the power single-handedly to overthrow the Republic. By his death he was effectively emperor of most of the known world.
