GODS TRAITORS: TERROR & FAITH IN ELIZABETHAN ENGLAND

Anne Vaux, a member of the aristocratic Vauxes of Harrowden Hall, wakes in a prison cell. She’s been on the run, but the authorities have tracked her down and taken her to the Tower of London - where she is interrogated about the Gunpowder Plot. Through the eyes of this remarkable family, author Jessie Childs explores the Catholic predicament in Elizabethan England - an age in which their faith was criminalised and almost two hundred Catholics were executed.
