Revelation: A Matthew Shardlake Mystery by CJ Sansom
Following a friend’s grisly murder, Shardlake is drawn into a Tudor version of Se7en. Despite characters often speaking in anachronistically modern idiom, Sansom’s evocation of 16th-century London amidst the turmoil of the Reformation is compelling; and when not slowed by superfluous subplots, Revelation is a brisk thriller.
