About Lamentation by C.J. Sansom

In the summer of 1546, as Henry VIII lies dying, religious and political factions at court are struggling for influence. Queen Catherine Parr summons Matthew Shardlake to find a missing manuscript: her Protestant confession, which could put her and her allies in danger if it reaches the King.

The investigation begins in London’s printshops and leads into the volatile world of the Tudor court. Readers interested in Henry VIII’s final years, religious conflict in sixteenth-century England, and historical mysteries will find those subjects at the heart of this novel.
