This beautiful book allows you to experience and participate in the last of the daily cycle of fixed-hour prayer: Compline. Kenneth Peterson has sung Compline at St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral in Seattle since the mid-1960s, and tells the story of the history and themes of the office, woven together with reflections from his own spiritual journey. Links are included to musical selections that illuminate the book's chapters. A comprehensive look at this ever-popular contemplative prayer service at the end of the day.

Kenneth Peterson taught music before entering into a career in software engineering. He has had a long interest in chant and early music, and has performed in and directed ensembles. In addition to the Compline Choir, he sings with Peregrine Medieval Vocal Ensemble. He is also a Benedictine oblate at St. Placid Priory in Lacey, Washington.
