Show Notes

Which takes place in Tudor-era England and follows main protagonist, hunchbacked lawyer Matthew Shardlake. Sansom was born in Edinburgh and despite leaving school with no qualifications, he still managed to enrol at Birmingham University and gain a BA and PhD in History. After holding various jobs, Sansom decided to retrain as a solicitor and practised in Sussex as a lawyer for the disadvantaged, something we see carried forward in the character of Matthew Shardlake himself.
