Not one of Massinger's best plays. Partly about a weird story in which a dead man's creditors won't release his body for burial until his debts are paid off, which they can't be because he spent all the money on helping defend his country. It gets stranger too, with a healthy dose of misogyny and some really misplaced humour.
