Lizzy Mitchell was raised by Father Mike, her beloved uncle and a Catholic priest, until she was nine-years old. Their idyllic life ended abruptly when false accusations from a bitter parishioner resulted in Lizzy being sent off to boarding school. Twenty years later, in the aftermath of an near-fatal accident, Lizzy believes she hears the voice of the long-dead Father Mike. So begins a journey of reconciliation that will both devastate and revive the lives of the people Lizzy loves most.
