Content introduction
The Church of Rome received a report that Father Ferreira, who had been sent to Japan, had been tortured in Nagasaki by "hanging by the cave" and had taken an oath of renunciation.
In Portugal, three young priests planned to infiltrate Japan. They're Father Ferreira's former students.
They could accept that Ferreira had been martyred, but in any case they did not believe that their teacher would succumb like a dog.
Three people plan to go to Japan to find out the truth of the matter.
