1537, England. The planned destruction of the monasteries, declared hotbeds of vice and treason, is in full swing. However, events in the monastery of the small town of Skarnsey are not developing according to the scenario written by the main ruler Thomas Cromwell. His emissary is brutally murdered, the headless body found in a pool of blood near the defiled altar. Who did this? Sorcerers, adherents of black magic? Or smugglers? Or the monks themselves? Investigate the atrocity entrusted to Matthew Shardlake, a hunchback whose mind is able to unravel the most complex crimes. Arriving at the monastery, he discovers that this murder is not the first committed within the walls of the monastery ... In the world of literary heroes and in the minds of today's reader, the image of Matthew Shardlake takes pride of place along with such famous characters as Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Nero Wolfe and Commissioner Maigret.
