Come Rack! Come Rope! By: Robert Hugh Benson ( Historical NOVEL ) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781546541165)

Come Rack Come Rope is a historical novel by the English priest and writer Robert Hugh Benson (1871-1914), a convert to Catholicism from Anglicanism. Set in Derbyshire at the time of the Elizabethan persecution of Catholics, when being or harbouring a priest was considered treason and was punishable with death, it tells the story of two young lovers who give up their chance of happiness together, choosing instead to face imprisonment and martyrdom, so that God's will may be done.
