In January 1888, workmen excavating in the eastern crypt of Canterbury Cathedral discovered the bones of a skeleton many believed to be that of the martyred archbishop, Thomas Beckett. This book traces the full history of Beckett's bones', from their alleged destruction by Henry VIII's commissioners during the Reformation to the present day.
