The Church and the King

Deals with the varied fortunes of the Falconers in the days of Henry VIII, at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries. Guy Falconer's stepmother wished her own son to inherit, and would go to any length to see it done; Lord Osbaldistone had laid covetous eyes on the Falconer estates. There were many perils for the young folks, and many opportunities for bravery.
