Revelation by C.J. Sansom

4.0

It is spring 1543. King Henry VIII is looking for a new wife and has his eyes set on the newly widowed Catherine Parr. This sets the back-drop for the events that lead lawyer Matthew Shardlake to chase a serial murderer around London. The killer gets his inspiration from the Book of Revelation. The first victim that comes to Shardlake's attention is his old friend Roger, found with his throat slashed in a fountain. The case is politically sensitive and the stakes emotionally high.
