Sansom, who holds a doctorate in history, was a solicitor for decades until his writing found success with the first of his Matthew Shardlake series, Dissolution, published in 2003.
But the latter's success has not gone unnoticed, and All3Media's The Forge is forging ahead with an adaptation of another series that blends the two flavors so well, CJ Sansom's Shardlake novels, with Disney reportedly signing on to stream it. The lack of shows that meet the criteria of both fandoms is why Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries was so popular and why Miss Scarlet & The Duke is currently such a massive hit for PBS because they are part of the few where the mystery of the week meets the period drama and makes it work. There are very few shows where historical period dramas and police procedural mysteries crossover.
