Description HIstorians have suggested that Larnach's public success was hollow, and that his family life harboured devastating secrets. It is this that John Drummond's opera explores, in a compelling and moving story of love, loyalty and betrayal. Drummond has set the action on the day of Larnach's death, 12 October 1898, and placed it at the Castle.
