Book synopsis

A minister endures a crisis of faith-and humanity-in this historical novel about the Church of England from the New York Times-bestselling author.

1940. Jon Darrow is an Anglican priest with psychic gifts and a fulfilling, well-ordered life. Suddenly, he receives a vision calling him to leave his monastery and embark on a journey which will require all his courage and strength-a quest to find a new life. Yet how can he be sure his psychic gifts-those glamorous powers-won't corrupt a new ministry in a world full of temptations and dominated by the Second World War?

Darrow begins to fear the vision was a delusion. But a passionate romance is waiting for him in the Starbridge diocese, and Darrow must decide what spiritual path he is meant to follow in a dark and dangerous world.
