Description

Why have you called me now Is there some rumour still of me, and of my life Is it God calls me, in God's great house


From his grave in the precincts of Canterbury Cathedral, Dallas Sweetman is called to give account. He tells a story of love and death, jealousy and miraculous happenings, of the divided loyalties of Protestants and Catholics in the Elizabethan Age. Before us, his judges, Dallas seeks to justify the actions of his life.


But is he telling the truth And can he be forgiven
