The story is set in the 14th century and centers around a diverse group of characters who are brought together by their shared desire to reach the holy shrine of St. Thomas Becket in Canterbury.The travelers include a young widow, a knight, a monk, a merchant, and a nun, each with their own unique motivations for making the journey. Along the way, they encounter various obstacles and challenges, including harsh weather, dangerous bandits, and personal conflicts.As they travel together, the group develops a sense of camaraderie and learns to rely on each other for support. Through their interactions, the characters explore themes of faith, love, and redemption, and ultimately discover the true meaning of pilgrimage.Wickenden's writing is rich in historical detail, providing a vivid portrayal of life in medieval England.
