Summary

"Beaumont and Fletcher's Works, Vol. 04 of 10" by Francis Beaumont and John Fletcher is a compilation of plays that explore the tangled web of right and wrong, as well as the tricky nature of wanting things, particularly when powerful people get involved. Featured are stories like "The Tragedy of Valentinian," "Monsieur Thomas," "The Chances," and "The Bloody Brother." The first story starts off in a time of secrets and stress, focusing on the problems of Valentinian, who is the head honcho, and brave fighters named Æcius and Maximus.
