Thomas Becket lived at the centre of medieval England. Son of a draper's merchant, he was befriended and favoured by Henry II and quickly ascended the rungs of power and privilege.

Yet he lost it all defying his closest friend and King, resulting in his own bloody murder and the birth of a legend. Seller Inventory # 115575
