England 1603. Elizabeth I passed away and King James of Scotland now sits on the throne. But the country is at war with Catholic Spain, which means that in England Catholics, including priests who secretly hold Mass, are being persecuted and tried. Several times there has been an attack on King James, but so far these attempts have been unsuccessful. But somewhere in the countryside, deep in Warwickshire, a new plot against the king is born. That plot will become legendary and will have repercussions that will still be felt 400 years later
