None could go against the King of England ... not overtly, anyway.

April 1284. As a newly widowed lady-in-waiting to the very pregnant Queen Eleanor of England, Catrin never expected to return to Wales again. She was definitely unprepared to be confronted with murder when she got there-or to find herself face-to-face with Rhys, the childhood friend she lost twenty years before. Rhys had never intended to return home either, but a lifetime of war has deposited him right back where he started-impoverished and owing service to Catrin's older brother.

With Wales fallen irrevocably to England and not knowing whom else they can trust, Catrin and Rhys join forces against the treachery and intrigue rife within the royal court in the first three books of The Welsh Guard Mysteries: Crouchback, Chevalier, Paladin.

Who knew that today's detectives were middle age quaestors?
The Welsh history is interesting, if maybe a bit intense. Some of the detail is not necessary for the plot and makes it hard to follow at times. I often had to go back to pick up on the story and skip the history.
The narration is good. I'm not familiar with Welsh accents but it became easy to follow quickly. The only thing that became a bit grating on the ear was the (over?)emphasis on the "correct" pronunciation of Rhys to the extent that it stood out over the rest of the narration.
Overall, a good listen.

Interesting take on the origins of detective work

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
The narration wasn’t great, it made the book boring. I got halfway through and realised I had no idea what was happening. It just didn’t hold my interest at all, sadly

I really wanted to like this

I gave up after four hours.
By which time I was totally lost
The narration didn't help, almost monotone and not at all engaging

Such a shame
