IMPRESSIVE HISTORICAL TREACHERY!
It is 1537, a time of revolution and Henry Vlll has proclaimed himself Supreme Head of the Church. The country is waking up to savage new laws, rigged trials and the greatest network of informers it has ever seen.
Thomas Cromwell sends a team of commissioners throughout the country to investigate the monasteries. There can only be one outcome: the monasteries are to be dissolved.
Matthew Shardlake, lawyer and long-term supporter of Reform, has been sent by Cromwell into this atmosphere of treachery and death. Shardlake’s investigation soon forces him to question everything he hears and everything that he intrinsically believes…
J. Sansom was educated at Birmingham University, where he took a BA and then a Ph. D. in history. He retrained as a solicitor and now writes full-time.
‘Remarkable… the sights, the voices,
the very smell of this turbulent age seems to rise from the page.’ P. D. James.
