About this listen

Catrin and Rhys travel to Windsor Castle for their third medieval mystery together...

August 1284. On the heels of King Edward's triumph over Wales, the high point of his reign thus far, he receives the worst news possible: his eldest living son and heir to the throne of England has died. Concerned that his victories in Wales, and even more the means by which he came by them, have brought the wrath of the Almighty down upon his house, King Edward sends Catrin and Rhys to Windsor Castle to investigate.

But although they find victims and villains aplenty, their far greater test—of friendship, loyalty, and allegiance—is managing the expectations of a grieving king, who fears his son was murdered—and fears even more that he wasn't.

Paladin is the third book in The Welsh Guard Mysteries.

Series so far: Crouchback, Chevalier, Paladin, Herald, Bardd

Once again Sarah Woodbury passed on historical facts through her fiction; that you will remember forever.
By mentionening Charlemagne, she reminded me of my childwood studing and listing to his story.

I really enjoyed Paladin. The philosophy of the characters also really resonate with me.
A fabulous book, in a great series.

I actually love the narrator he makes this story even better but I do have to listen to it on 1.2 speed.
