Immediately her scholars jump to the conclusion that the man has been found guilty of kin-murder. The Brehon sentence for this worst of all crimes is that the murderer be towed out to sea and left to the mercy of wind and waves and the ultimate judgement of Almighty God. But Mara notices something odd about the body, something which arouses her suspicions. And something familiar about the boat in which he lies. Soon she has embarked on a full-scale murder investigation. And gradually suspicion dawns that someone near and dear to her is involved in the murder. 600 00 $a Mara, $c Brehon of the Burren (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women judges $z Burren $z Burren $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Burren (Ireland) $x History $y 16th century $v Fiction. 800 1 $a Harrison, Cora. $t Burren mysteries. 941 $a 2 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722045308.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006082908.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8195137C9E1611E49C7523ABDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
