Teaser Tuesday - Dissolution by C.J. Sansom

Hey everyone! I've got my Teaser Tuesday this week, it's from Dissolution, the first in the Matthew Shardlake series. Since I started with Lamentation, which is the latest in the book, the characters here are quite different from the same I encountered. Still enjoying the story though.

Teaser:
"That morning, for all I sat behind the stinking coffin of a murdered man, I found myself lulled along by the monks' beautiful, polyphonic chant. The psalms, and the Latin readings from Job, struck a chord." (page 255)
So, what is your teaser this week?

  2. I've been really wanting to try Sansom's series. I've been hearing good things about it. I like the teaser--the juxtaposition of the murder victim with the monks' chanting.

    1. I've only read the latest book, and now this, but it's definitely worth getting into if you like historical fiction+mystery :D
