Come Rack! Come Rope!
by Robert Hugh Benson

Beginning with a family quarrel and an agonizing decision by two young lovers, Robert Hugh Benson's story progresses with mounting tension through escapes, plots and counter-plots to an intensely moving close on the gallows that spells victory rather than defeat.

It tells how a band of determined men and women struggled, endured and died to keep alive the Catholic faith their ancestors had held for a thousand years.

Benson was a protestant priest who converted to Catholicism. His novels are often about religion.
