“Guided by faith. Blinded by hope. Betrayed by love.”
A novice monk from the north of England is expelled from his order and relocates to London, where he struggles with his spiritual goals, earthly temptations and personal ideals. In the capital, he finds work as a jobbing journalist but is soon drowning in a sea of betrayal and misplaced affection.
