He enlists the help of hunchbacked lawyer Matthew Shardlake and Shardlake's young, handsome assistant Mark Poer in investigating the death and finding the agent's killer.
Donatus the Ascendant in Scarnsea, Cromwell fears his worries have come to pass. When an agent of the King turns up dead while on the King's business at the remote Monastery of St. Cromwell eagerly accepts the challenge, although he is concerned about a possible uprising from those opposed to the Crown as well as by demoralized Catholics, or Papists. Dissolution takes place in England in 1537, as Thomas Cromwell, vicar-general to King Henry VIII, is aiding the king in his efforts to undermine the authority of the Roman Catholic Church within England. His debut novel, Dissolution, "provides readers with a vivid Tudor historical mystery," according to Harriet Klausner in an online review for Books ‘n’ Bytes.
