“The relic is gone!”
On her first day working in the Abbey of St. Edmundsbury, Aileen finds herself in the center of it all when a Crusader returning from the Holy Land brings a priceless gift, a piece of the True Cross upon which Jesus died. But when the gift is stolen and the family of Aileen’s friend Ruth is accused of the theft, Aileen and her friends are put to tests of bravery, loyalty, and wit as they work to exonerate Ruth’s family and restore the spirit of the town.
Crusader’s Way is the first installment of a debut YA historical mystery series. The books can be read as standalones, although it is recommended to read them in order.
