Well, who doesn't get around town by leaping over rooftops?!

Yes, some good reading. A few I think you'd enjoy, but nothing Shardlakey, I'm afraid. Have you read "Jack Absolute" by CC Humphreys, btw? (The blurb calls it "the 007 of the 1770s"). I haven't read it, but several members of my family who have are also Shardlake fans.
