Reseña del editor:

During the late Elizabethan era, when Puritans and Papists are fighting for power, merchant-constable Matthew Stock is framed for a devious murder and only his clever wife, Joan, can save him from the gallows. Reprint.

Only the industrious and clever Joan Stock, Matthew's steadfast wife, is a liberty to save his neck from the gallows, that is until the plotters turn toward her--aiming to rid themselves of the one body who stands in their way....
