T. S. Eliot's most famous drama, a retelling of the murder of the archbishop of Canterbury Murder in the Cathedral, written for the Canterbury Festival in 1935, was one of T. S. Eliot’s first dramatic achievements, and it remains one of the great plays of the century. It takes as its subject matter the martyrdom of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, depicting the events that led to his assassination, in his own cathedral church, by the knights of Henry II in 1170. Like Greek drama, the play’s theme and form are rooted in religion, ritual purgation and renewal, and it was this return to the earliest sources of drama that brought poetry triumphantly back to the English stage at the time. "The theatre is enriched by this poetic play of grave beauty and momentous decision." —The New York Times

The story of the murder of Thomas à Becket as seen through the eyes of the great poet.
Does one get away with murder? Can it be rationalized as being acceptable to respond with deadly force to a serious harm against a family member? Murder at the Cathedral begins with two boyhood friends, Scot and Mike, both having thoughts of becoming priests. As they mature, their career goals evolve into their interests in law and becoming attorneys. The story follows Scot through his education and early employment history. It continues into his entry into a legal career. Blended into the story is Scot's friend Mike, along with Mike's extended family. The major focus is on Mike's brother, John. Following a tragic event to his family, John tries to take matters into his own hands. Despite being in the early stages of his legal career, Scot finds himself representing John as his attorney. Included in the story is the attorney client privilege, which is a significant legal rule. The attorney client privilege comes into play and is explained in detail by Scot to a client in a manner that takes the mystery out of the rule and makes it easily understood. Unfortunately, use of the privilege causes a serious dilemma for Scot after it is invoked by a client. Bruce introduces an interesting array of characters in this thought provoking slice of humanity. The reader can easily identify with the characters and the situations they face.
"This blithe series puts itself on the side of the angels by merrily, and staunchly, subverting every tenet of political correctness."—The Independent For many years Westonbury Cathedral has been dominated by a clique of High Church gays, so when Norman Cooper, an austere, intolerant, happy-clappy evangelist, is appointed dean, there is shock, outrage and fear. David Elworthy, the gentle and politically innocent new bishop, is distraught at the prospect of warfare between the factions; contentious issues include the camp lady chapel and the gay memorial under construction in the deanery garden. Desperate for help, Elworthy cries on the shoulder of his old friend, the redoubtable Baroness Troutbeck, who forces her unofficial troubleshooter, Robert Amiss, to move into the bishop's palace. Amiss, Troutbeck and the cat Plutarch address themselves in their various ways to the bishop's problems, which very soon include a clerical corpse in the cathedral. Is it suicide? Or is it murder? And who is likely to be next?
