And in March 2020, the final novel of the trilogy, “The Mirror and the Light,” is finally released. England, 16th century. Henry VIII Tudor is on the throne - but if he dies without leaving an heir, civil war will break out. Thomas Cromwell is appointed to the royal Privy Council - the son of a rowdy blacksmith, who managed to serve as a mercenary in the French army, work in a Florentine banking house and become imbued with the ideas of Machiavellianism, a former secretary of the disgraced Cardinal Wolsey. Some consider Cromwell an unprincipled scoundrel, others - a political genius. By any means - flattery and threats, bribery and arrests - fulfilling the will of the king, he begins to build a new England...
