Produktbeschreibung
Father Tom is a perfectly unremarkable man who, in his youth, chose the quite remarkable calling of Episcopal priest. At sixty-five, he is at the end of a long life, thinking of the future and, of course, the past. His wife Merilee has preceded him into eternity and he's torn between the need to join her and the desire to leave his mark at St. Ursula's. It might be hard to do. For some time now, he's simply been going through the motions, awkwardly playing a part. Tom resolves once and for all to change lives for the better and in a moment of inspiration, thinks he's found the way. Although he's never done it before and may run afoul of the church, he decides to take the confessions of his parishioners. The very next Sunday, he sets out to generate some enthusiasm, even recruit some volunteers. There are sure to be surprises and he quickly finds both his suspicions and his greatest fears confirmed.
