From one of P. D. James?s favorite mystery authors comes the 3rd Shardlake novel
Autumn 1541. A plot from the throne has been uncovered, and Henry VIII has tripped on a spectacular progress from London to York, along with a thousand soldiers, the cream of the nobility, and his fifth wife, Catherine Howard, to quell his rebellious northern subjects. Awaiting his arrival are attorney Matthew Shardlake and his loyal assistant, Jack Barak. Furthermore to processing petitions to the king, Shardlake?s task is to safeguard an unhealthy conspirator until he is transported back to London for interrogation.
However when a local glazier is murdered, things get a little more complicated as the murder appears to be not only linked to Shardlake?s prisoner but also to the royal family itself. Then Shardlake stumbles upon a cache of secret papers that throws into doubt the legitimacy of the entire royal line, and a chain of events unfolds that threatens Shardlake with terrifying fate of the age: imprisonment in the Tower of London.
