I recently read C.J. Sansom's Dissolution and agree with ATDrake's medium-high recommendation. If you like historical mysteries, this is one of the better ones.

This made me laugh because I recently read a book that I was loving until the protagonist littered in the wilderness when I decided that he was an arrogant, irresponsible, offensive jerk and I almost quit reading. It ruined the book for me. Maybe I'm just f---in' tired of picking up after people while hiking. Murder and mayhem are fine in books, but environmental irresponsibility is seriously upsetting.
