Tudor Mysteries (volume 1)
About This Novel
Autumn 1537, England. A special commissioner with a mysterious identity suddenly appeared in a port monastery. His arrival seemed to foreshadow the secular storm that was about to face this secluded dwelling place of God. Just as the monks were speculating on the purpose of the visitor's trip, the commissioner unexpectedly died tragically in the courtyard: his blood desecrated the altar, and the sacred objects he enshrined disappeared without a trace... The hunchback detective Matthew Sharek went to the scene overnight on the order of Thomas Cromwell, the Minister of State, to thoroughly investigate the case. Unexpectedly, despite the tight security, the murderer was still unscrupulous and committed a series of crimes right under the eyes of the detectives! Is this revenge, provocation, or a brutal political attack on the people behind Xialek? After peeling off the compassionate and pious veil of the monastery, Xialek was shocked to find that where he stood was not the end of the truth, but the source of a heavier and more complex tragedy...
