Murder in St Paul'sMurder in St Paul's by Richard Dale
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In 1514, in the early years of the reign of Henry VIII, a wealthy London Merchant, Richard Hunne, was found hanging in the Old St Paul’s Cathedral. Was it murder or suicide. This is a fictional account of one view of that event.
To the background of the teachings of Lollard and Martin Luther, his widow Anne, attempts to determine the truth, while trying to keep safe in a country where being anti-church can bring death.
An interesting historical fictional account of these dangerous times, for people who did not believe in the all powerful church that existed across Europe at this time.
