Description
C.J. Sansom's latest novel is a gripping mystery set in 16th-century England, as the country prepares for war. England, 1545. England is at war. Henry VIII's invasion of France has gone badly wrong, and a massive French fleet is preparing to sail across the Channel. In this, the fifth novel in the Shardlake series, C.J. Sansom weaves a complex web of intrigue and deception. Matthew Shardlake, a lawyer with a keen mind and a troubled past, is drawn into a case involving a young ward of the court, with claims of 'monstrous wrongs' committed against them. As Shardlake investigates, he finds himself in a city preparing for war, where old friends and enemies converge in unexpected ways. As events converge on board one of the King's great warships gathered in Portsmouth harbour, waiting to confront the approaching French fleet, Shardlake must navigate the treacherous waters of court politics and ancient rivalries.
