Summer 1541. King Henry VIII of England, concerned about an attempted mutiny, is about to visit York in the north of the kingdom to prevent a possible recurrence of the rebellion. Matthew Shardlake, included in the royal retinue, travels to York in advance with a secret mission to bring the organizer of the failed rebellion to London. With his assistant Shardlake settles in St. Mary's Abbey, which is to become the temporary residence of the king. This is where a series of mysterious incidents begin. First, the stained glass craftsman Oldroyd dies. When examining the house of the murdered man, a cache with a box containing ancient documents is discovered. The next victim is Shardlake himself. From a blow to the head, he loses consciousness, and found papers that could shed light on the true initiators of the conspiracy, disappear...In the world of literary heroes and in the minds of today's readers, the image of Matthew Shardlake takes an honorable place in a row with such famous characters as Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Niro Wolfe and Commissioner Megret.
