About this product

Product Information

The second in Christopher Sansom's remarkable historical crime series It's 1540, three years after Shardlake was commissioned by Cromwell to investigate the murders at Scarnsea monastery. It is the hottest summer of the sixteenth century. Shardlake is trying to keep a low profile, believing himself to be out of favour with Thomas Cromwell while at the same time maintaining his London-based legal practice. He has been pulled, against his better judgement, into defending Elizabeth Wentworth, charged with murdering her cousin. But Elizabeth refuses to plead either guilty or not guilty. The penalty for not pleading is to be crushed under a weight until you plead or die. Shardlake is powerless to help the girl yet she is suddenly granted a reprieve - courtesy of Cromwell. The cost of the reprieve to Shardlake is two weeks once again in the service of Cromwell. Cromwell, however, is no longer the triumphant, irresistible force he once was, not least because of the ill-fated marriage he arranged for the King with Anne of Cleves. Cromwell is running out of options, but he has one more card to play: Greek Fire, an ancient weapon considered lost long ago, which has turned up again in the hands of two alchemist brothers. This is the kind of gift to guarantee the King's favour, it is also the kind of gift that people kill for...

  • Brilliant. Sansom at his very best. the last page leaves you wanting more

    have been reading the shardlake series and this was equally brilliant! from the first page to the last it kept me within it's grip! Sansom describes the historic scenery as if he had actually been around at the time! This is the second book of the Shardlake series and I guarantee that if you start reading them you will not rest until you have read them all! It starts with Dissolution, which is an incredible book, introducing the hunchback lawyer Shardlake to the readers, followed by Dark Fire, then Sovereign and finally Revelation. Each book centres around cases which Shardlake is dealing with on behalf of clients but also he is drawn into solving quite horrific murder cases with the help of a few of his close associates. The period is Tudor, Henry is in his prime with the first book but ...

  • Amazing Story
