It is Sunday morning on the 4th August 1577, in Bongay, a small town in North Suffolk. During a violent thunderstorm, the church is struck by lightning and two parishioners are killed while another is severely injured. Soon afterward, a pamphlet is published claiming that the deaths and injuries were caused by a giant ghostly black dog, which broke down the church door and ran up and down the aisle, attacking all in its path. <br><br>The Bishop of Norwich sends Captain Richard Brightwell to investigate the mystery, accompanied by his servant Humfry Trip, his secretary John Kettle and Augustyn, his seven-foot tall mute bodyguard. They soon come to realise that nobody in town is who they appear to be, and while navigating a medieval football match and early street theatre, they become embroiled in mayhem, mystery...and murder.
