The Traitor's Mark

If you liked Shardlake, you will love this exciting new series of novels set in the turbulent age of Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn and Thomas Cromwell, and effortlessly underpinned by the brilliant scholarship for which Derek Wilson is renowned. We feel we are really there, in an authentically evoked Tudor London, hot on the trail of a real-life murder mystery. Highly recommended! * Alison Weir, bestselling author and historian *[Full of] Murder, kidnapping and intrigue…the fictitious characters blend well with the real protagonists…and the red herrings abounded as they should in any good mystery tale. Recommended. * Historical Novels Review on THE TRAITOR’S MARK *The sense of period is impeccable, and the reader really gets a sense of how shocking this murder must have been… The story has more twists than a dancing serpent and the pace is relentless, yet it is the characterisation and the little details that make it such a good read. * Historical Novels Review on THE FIRST HORSEMAN *The First Horseman is a resounding success that blends fact and fiction to create a gripping, fast moving Tudor crime story that educates as well as fascinates…Wilson has created a compelling character, and the fact that this series will continue to revolve around real life Tudor mysteries is fantastic…unputdownable would be an understatement. * The Bookbag on THE FIRST HORSEMAN *Wilson wonderfully [evokes] the street-level reality of Tudor-era England in its weathers and sights and smells and even in its unexpected beauties. The plot is charged with genuine suspense * Christian Science Monitor *
