I'm Father Tom Greer, a Catholic Priest in a small-town parish who never expected this . . .

When I came to Myerton to take over as pastor of Saint Clare's Catholic Church, I never expected to run into a woman I loved in college twenty years ago . . .

I never expected that woman to be the police detective who solved my first wife's murder–and saved my life in the process . . . 

I never expected to fall in love with her all over again . . .

Most of all, I never, ever expected to receive permission from the Holy Father to marry her . . .

So after a wonderful wedding and a honeymoon cruise with my new wife, we're looking forward to another week together, just the two of us.

But instead, we have to go back home, to Myerton. 

You see, my deacon's been murdered, and I have a hurting flock to tend to.
