Now a major Disney+ original series
'C. J. Sansom’s books are arguably the best Tudor novels going' – The
Sunday Times
Dissolution is the first novel in C. J. Sansom’s phenomenal bestselling
Shardlake series, perfect for fans of Hilary Mantel and Phillipa
Gregory. After one of Cromwell's commissioners is brutally murdered,
Matthew Shardlake is drawn into an investigation that becomes darker
than he could have ever imagined . . .
England, 1537. It is a time of revolution that sees the greatest
changes in England since 1066. Henry VIII 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. And under the orders of Thomas Cromwell, a team of commissioners
is sent throughout the country to investigate the monasteries. There
can only be one outcome: dissolution.
But on the Sussex coast, at the monastery of Scarnsea, events have
spiralled out of control. Cromwell's commissioner, Robin Singleton, has
been found dead, his head severed from his body. His horrific murder
accompanied by equally sinister acts of sacrilege.
Matthew Shardlake, lawyer and long-time supporter of Reform, has been
sent by Cromwell to uncover the truth behind the dark happenings at
Scarnsea. But Shardlake's investigation soon forces him to question
everything that he hears, and everything that he intrinsically believes
. . .
Follow Shardlake into the dark heart of Tudor England with the next
book in the series, Dark Fire.
