About this product
Product Information
C.J. Sansom's bestselling adventures of Matthew Shardlake continue in the fourth title in the series, the haunting Revelation. Spring, 1543. King Henry VIII is wooing Lady Catherine Parr, whom he wants for his sixth wife. Archbishop Cranmer and the embattled Protestant faction at court are watching keenly, for Lady Catherine is known to have reformist sympathies. Matthew Shardlake, meanwhile, is working on the case of a teenage boy who has been placed in the Bedlam insane asylum, before his terrifying religious mania leads to him being burned as a heretic. When an old friend is horrifically murdered Shardlake vows to bring the killer to justice. His search leads him to Cranmer and Catherine Parr - and to the dark prophecies of the Book of Revelation. As London's Bishop Bonner prepares a purge of Protestants Shardlake, together with his assistant, Jack Barak, and his friend, Guy Malton, investigate a series of horrific murders which are already bringing frenzied talk of witchcraft and demonic possession - for what else would the Tudor mind make of a serial killer . . .?Product Identifiers

Serial Killer or Demon-Possessed? Tudor vs Modern world-views
A detective Whodunit set in the Alien World of Henry VIII's England, with a hunch-backed Lawyer as the "Sherlock Holmes" protagonist. Sansom brings to life a world of religious fanaticism, political intrigue and crushing superstition, where Doctors regularly bleed patients to death, and Protestants, Catholics and Reformers fight it out for the title of the one true Faith, The first flickers of science are emerging to challence the rigid orthodoxy of classical thought that dates back to the Greek philosophers, but the Age of Enlightenment is a Century in the future.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
