Brothers Barnabus and Donatus of Cambusdonald Abbey are back, now five years on from the events of The Sorcerer's Tale. Another crisis hits Cambusdonald when the nearby convent is burnt to the ground and its nuns are temporarily billeted with the monks in the Abbey. The nuns bring with them their secret recipe for the convent liqueur and many other problems as well. Merry monks meet naughty nuns and more mysterious maidens in this fun-filled, fast-flowing farce.
