Bartholomew Neil is thirty-nine and lost.
After the death of his beloved mum he has no idea how to be on his own, and he knows it's about time he found his flock.
But how does a man whose whole life has been grounded learn how to fly?
And what can Richard Gere, a beautiful librarian, a struggling priest and a foul-mouthed and troubled young man teach Bartholomew about finding love and happiness?
Whatever it is, Bartholomew is in for a lot more than he bargained for . . .
