However, Cadfael's brother was the first medieval detective. in a cassock. Brother Cadfael is nothing more than a figment of the author's imagination. A brother with that name was never listed as a monk at the Shrewsbury monastery. Like many other monks we met while reading the Chronicles. But the abbey itself, ancient and revered, existed, and the glory it gained in the Middle Ages was largely connected with the events that Ellis Peters described in her novels. Contents:1.
