Book Log 2018 #6: The Sanctuary Sparrow by Ellis Peters
A minstrel performing at a wedding is accused of murder and robbery against the groom's father, and takes flight. With the mob of wedding guests at his heels, the minstrel enters the abbey church and claims sanctuary. The sheriff claims that the boy can be granted sanctuary, but only for a period of time where the crime can be investigated. So enters Brother Cadfael, whose belief in the boy's innocence drives him to find the true criminal. While, of course, steering the course of true love between the boy and a maid in the household where the wedding was held.
Nothing surprising here, a very standard Cadfael story with the trappings you'd expect at this point in the series.
