A review by kinosthesia
Heartstone by C.J. Sansom

5.0

Once again C J Sansom had me gripped with his vivid portrayal of Tudor England and the 'simple' case he takes on that turns out to be more complex. Set during the tense time of war with France, Sansom really shows well the life and law of the land in that era. The book might seem slow at first, but the even pace is necessary to build the story and increasingly tense and dangerous scenario.
