"With his customary grace, Sansom places Shardlake's rousing fictional adventures into an authentic historical context."-- Marilyn Stasio , The New York Times, "The tale is enthralling. . . . Sansom describes 16th-century events in the crisply realistic style of someone watching them transpire right outside his window. . . . Don't believe those tapestries of pretty lords and ladies happily hunting unicorns: The Middle Ages were murder."-- Marilyn Stasio , New York Times Book Review, "Outstanding . . . Non-mystery readers interested in Tudor England will be equally enthralled." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review), PRAISE FOR THE SHARDLAKE SERIES "Don't expect to put Shardlake down until you've seen it through to the apocalyptic finale."-- The Guardian, "Outstanding . . . Non-mystery readers interested in Tudor England will be equally enthralled."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review), "The tale is enthralling. . . . Sansom describes 16th-century events in the crisply realistic style of someone watching them transpire right outside his window. . . . Don't believe those tapestries of pretty lords and ladies happily hunting unicorns: The Middle Ages were murder." -- Marilyn Stasio , New York Times Book Review, "Longtime readers of this superb series will know what to expect on every level: sharply drawn characters, particularly Shardlake himself, who has grown into one of the most well-textured leading characters in the entire genre... Tombland is the latest in what is easily one of the best ongoing mystery series currently being published."-- Christian Science Monitor, "With his customary grace, Sansom places Shardlake's rousing fictional adventures into an authentic historical context." -- Marilyn Stasio , The New York Times

The nominal king, Edward VI, is eleven years old. His uncle, Edward Seymour, Lord Hertford, rules as Edward's regent and Protector.

Rebellion is stirring among the peasantry. Matthew Shardlake has been working as a lawyer in the service of Henry's younger daughter, the lady Elizabeth. The gruesome murder of one of Elizabeth's distant relations, rumored to be politically murdered, draws Shardlake and his companion Nicholas to the lady's summer estate, where a second murder is committed. As the kingdom explodes into rebellion, Nicholas is imprisoned for his loyalty, and Shardlake must decide where his loyalties lie -- with his kingdom, or with his lady?, During the political upheaval of Tudor-era England, the lawyer Matthew Shardlake must decide where his loyalties lie in the latest book in the Shardlake series, now an original streaming series on Hulu.
