About book Bone Of Contention (2003)

As with the two previous books in this mystery series, I'm fascinated by the lead characters (an educated "whoremistress", the women who work for her, and the men in her life), I love the writing, and I love being immersed in 12th-century England for a while. But much of the time, I can't follow the political machinations involving church and crown that are usually involved in the murder at hand. As a result, I never do quite grasp how Magdalene figures out the solution to the mystery. Perhaps if I had any background knowledge of the history of that time I wouldn't feel so much at sea. Yet I keep listening to the series and enjoying the ride, even though I'm a little lost sometimes. The narrator of the audiobooks is wonderful, but I may read the next one instead of listening to it, to see if I have an easier time following the plot on paper.
