Dissolution by C. J. Sansom

A novel of Tudor England.

When one of his commissioners is murdered in the monastery at Scarnsea on the south coast of England, Thomas Cromwell, King Henry VIII's feared vicar general, enlists his fellow reformer, Matthew Shardlake, a lawyer renowned as 'the sharpest hunch-back in the courts of England' to head the enquiry. When Shardlake and his protége, Mark Poer, arrive at Scarnsea, they uncover evidence of sexual misconduct, embezzlement, and treason. And when two other murders are revealed, Shardlake must act quickly to prevent the killer from murdering again
