Based on the TV show I've enjoyed greatly. Lots of colorful folks, great surroundings, and a complex mystery. I enjoyed it.

When the Domesday Commissioners arrive in Canterbury they find that a charitable young woman has been found dead, apparently from a snake bite. A monk who ministers to lepers insists she was strangled first and then bitten afterwords. Then the monk himself is found poisoned.
I was nearly right. My choice of murderer turned out to be the murderer's chief henchman. The book was rather slow at first but the last third was very exciting.
Hoping to get to at least two fo them for #ReadYourKindle hosted by @CBee

I‘ve been reading rom-com and YA recently so thought I‘d give cosy mystery a go….

The son of Daniel's assistant minister in the neighbouring parish is killed in the chapel of a disused WWII airbase in what looks like a ritual murder.
As with the first book, I enjoyed the slice of life scenes before and after the murder far more than the mystery itself because again the solution seemed to come out of nowhere. I will wishlist the next one because it's not out yet, but I'm in no hurry.
