About this listen

Ralph Delchard, a soldier who fought at the Battle of Hastings, and Gervase Bret, a talented lawyer, have been commissioned by William the Conqueror to look into irregularities brought to light during the compilation of the Domesday Book. Their investigations take them throughout the kingdom, but the pair often find themselves embroiled in more sinister mysteries in the towns they visit.

The king’s work is a dangerous business. A man’s body is found mutilated in Savernake Forest and the residents of Bedwyn sleep uneasy at night, fearing a monster stalking the town. When Ralph Delchard and Gervase Bret arrive, they discover that the locals are harbouring dark secrets and that the real killer may be a little closer to home....

A bunch of guys standing around. Yawn.

I’m on chapt. 4 and so far have read v detailed internal and external descriptions of all the adult males in the story. Two wives were briefly alluded to but only described in terms of their attractiveness and clothes. Think one of them had the hots for one of the older guys.
One of the guys got mauled by a wolf, or something, and the other guys are standing around trying to figure out whether it was a wolf or something else.
I am, for some reason, unable to return this novel. Credit wasted. Save yourself the money.
And, audible.ca, I wouldn’t have bothered writing this had I not been forced to waste a credit on it.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
