CONFESSION AT MADDLESKIRK ABBEY
Book ID/图书代码： 07861215B84220
English Summary/英文概要： When a woman confesses to Father Will that she has committed murder, he can do nothing but absolve her from her sin. The Seal of Confession is absolute. He cannot discuss her crime, ask the identity of her victim, or share the responsibility of this information with anyone. His hands are tied.
When a body is found in the nearby woodland, his moral dilemma grows. As the enquiry progresses and the clues confirm his fears that it is a murder case, Father Will must still not reveal his knowledge. Detective Chief Superintendent "Nabber" Napier and his team have a murder to solve, but monks sworn by oath to silence are hardly the ideal candidates for questioning…
The search for the killer intensifies, and the team begin to uncover some disturbing facts. When the murder weapon is discovered, concealed in the Abbey, and the detectives learn of the mysterious disappearance - and violent past - of one of the Abbey’s monks, the race is on to find the culprit before anybody else gets hurt. Questions need to be answered and confessions must be made
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 当一名女性向威尔神父忏悔自己犯下的谋杀之罪，威尔神父能做的唯有缓解她的罪恶感。忏悔之印已然盖下。他不能讨论女人的罪行，不能询问受害者的身份，也与义务绝不和任何人共享这一信息。因为他收到束缚。随着一具尸体在附近的林地被发现，他也日益饱受内心道德的折磨。询问进程的推进和线索的揭开也越发证实了他的恐惧，这一案件正是那次的谋杀案，然而即便如此，威尔神父还是不能公开他所知道的信息。首席侦探警司，人称“神捕”的纳皮尔和他的团队需要解决一起谋杀案，然而发誓保持沉默的神职人员却很难成为问询对象……
随着加大对杀人凶手的搜索，警司的团队也开始发现了另一些不容忽视的事实。随着在寺庙中发现被藏起来的凶器，警探们获悉了一些离奇的失踪---有关于寺院中曾经一名神职人员的血腥过往，在其他人受到伤害前抓获凶手已经刻不容缓。询问必须展开，忏悔也必须进行。（DC）
