With The Mirror and the Light, Hilary Mantel brings to a triumphant close the trilogy she began with Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies. She traces the final years of Thomas Cromwell, offering a defining portrait of predator and prey, of a ferocious contest between present and past, between royal will and a common man`s vision: of a modern nation making itself through conflict, passion and courage. The stunning conclusion to the Booker Prize-winning Thomas Cromwell trilogy.
