A good listen !
Another story in the lives of the women in 11th century London. A good plot and also an excellent explanation of the history of the times.

Another Good Story!
Mediaeval town life was mostly dirty and dangerous but Magdalen and Bel triumph again.

Prostitutes in the English 1200's.
it was so nice to hear about Prositutes in England in the 1200's who weren't all mistreated.
These ladies were like family who looked after each other.
Most were intelligent and several had disabilities.
So when ladies defend and support each other anything is possible.

An enjoyable listen
Nicely paced, good to follow next chapter of familiar characters who are reassuringly, in essence either good or bad, historical note at end was very good to hear, giving the context for the story.

Gutted
Listened to the first two books and enjoyed them. Can't believe that the 3rd and 5th installments of the series can't be downloaded ?!?! What's going on Audible... ?

Excellent story and narrator.
I’m always wary about three books on audible but this one is really enjoyable and the narrator was excellent. Great combination and thank you very much to both of you.

A compelling read. Confused ending
Initially enjoyable . Like her books and good narration. A little confusing at the end.

great book
I really have enjoyed both these books . My only criticism is that there are so many characters that at times it got a little confusing but over all a good story well narrated. Fans of Candace Robb and Peter Elliot should enjoy these.

Okay for a freebie
Quite enjoyed the story, but found it difficult to follow at times. I had to reduce the narration speed to its lowest setting in order to grasp the names of the characters and their connections to the story. Unfortunately, this made the narration rather long and drawling, but at least made it easier to follow. The ending was rather strange, though. There didn't seem to be a clear conclusion ... or did I miss something? The author's notes at the end of the book was good, but would have been better told at the start in order to put the story in context.
