Description
Set against the backdrop of a small Scottish parish, Father David's life becomes the focus of public hysteria after a series of events in 2003. As he reflects on his past, including his time at Oxford during the student revolt, he begins to question the ideals that once drove him.
The story unfolds over the course of a year, as Father David forms friendships with two young people and grapples with the consequences of his actions. Meanwhile, religious tensions escalate, threatening to disrupt his life and community.
