About this product

Product Information

The first novel in the Matthew Shardlake Tudor Mystery series--soon to be an original streaming series! Dissolution is an utterly riveting portrayal of Tudor England. The year is 1537, and the country is divided between those faithful to the Catholic Church and those loyal to the king and the newly established Church of England. When a royal commissioner is brutally murdered in a monastery on the south coast of England, Thomas Cromwell, Henry VIII's feared vicar general, summons fellow reformer Matthew Shardlake to lead the inquiry. Shardlake and his young protégé uncover evidence of sexual misconduct, embezzlement, and treason, and when two other murders are revealed, they must move quickly to prevent the killer from striking again. A "remarkable debut" (P. D. James), Dissolution introduces a thrilling historical series that is not to be missed by fans of Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies . Awarded the CWA Diamond Dagger - the highest honor in British crime writing

  • Historical Tudor England Mystery that is great!

    I read this for my monthly mystery book club and didn't expect to like it because I don't like historical mysteries BUT this was great. I enjoyed the main characters and the "suspects" were pretty easy to follow. There was just enough background about the times to make it interesting but not dominate the story. The ending was a complete surprise but believeable. I am looking forward to more Matthew Shardlake!
