This short story is a departure from the other 'Tales of the Supernatural'. The others are intended for reading out aloud to a group by a cosy fire in an old house at Christmastime before you climb the creaking stairs to the cold guest room at the end of a long corridor where the nanny died and whose frantic scratch marks are still on the door.

This story is different. It is longer for a start, and by its nature would probably suit you best, just one person reading it alone, for there is much to meditate and contemplate on afterwards.

'The Leper's Bible' is based on an actual place, and refers to actual historical characters, with the exception of Brother Stephen and Brother Gregory. The references to historical events and deaths are as accurate as I could make them until imagination intervened.

Fountains Abbey the setting for the story is an astonishingly beautiful place despite being in ruins. I always feel a great sadness though whenever I visit it. Perhaps what happened in 'The Leper's Bible' is the reason.
Given the chance, I could happily throttle King Henry VIII!
