Father Greg Livesay, Ash Grove's only Episcopal priest, is handsome, charismatic, and troubled. Burdened by the problems of his parishioners, he has withdrawn into alcohol and sadness. His wife Jenna, who has become estranged from Greg, is also struggling with the loss of her parents, her father to cancer and her mother to dementia. Her son Lauren is drawn to a girl whose shyness masks a spiral into mental illness that, like Greg's addictions, will plunge the Livesays into a crisis they might not survive.
