Father Damien has reached a crisis in his life. For fifteen years he has been a well-loved priest, pastoring a little parish in Africa, having left behind his homeland, Ireland, and the girl he loved and thought he would marry. Mary Rose O'Mara was his childhood sweetheart, the girl he'd cared for since her mother died when she was four and his sister Maeve's best friend. No one knows why she suddenly married Seamus Rafferty while Damien was at university, planning his future with Mary. It had always been Mammy's wish that he become a priest so when Mary betrayed him, he entered the seminary. If he couldn't marry Mary, he would marry the church.
Full of despair after ten years in Africa immersing himself in his love of poetry and music and denying his true feelings, he realises with alarming clarity that he has lost his vocation, along with the woman he loved, his family and his freedom and has reached a crossroad.
The decision he makes will forever change his destiny.
