Revelation

Revelation by C.J. Sansom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Six years have gone by since Tudor lawyer Matthew Shardlake’s first outing as a detective. This time he is hunting down a serial killer whose horrific murders are staged to recreate a string of biblical prophecies from the Book of Revelation.
It’s a gripping story and beautifully told, set against a backdrop of fanatical religious factions and the mental illness that both they and the biblical texts, which are now available in English for the very first time, can cause. Classic Sansom at its best.
But that’s just my own humble opinion…what do you think? Do let me know!
