Henry and Cato

Iris Murdoch

Murdoch's eighteenth novel tells the story of Henry Marshalson, the recently returned heir to Laxlinden Hall, and his childhood friend Cato Forbes, a Catholic convert and priest whose faith is in crisis. Cato's attachment to a petty criminal, Joe Beckett, leads to disaster when Joe kidnaps him and holds him to ransom in an attempt to extort money from Henry and sexual favours from Cato's sister, Colette.
