The year is 1976, during the dark times - for both the Catholic Church and New York City. James is a college philosophy professor with too much time on his hands. When an old classmate asks for a favor, he drops in with little notion of what's ready for him. The college classmate is Father Gus Sadowski, a pastor in the middle of Bed-Sty, where the drive by criminals are on one side of the parish, and the mob is on the other. Father Gus is all alone to run the parish - and the live-in priest in the attic, Father Timothy A. Lessner, is worse than useless. When Lessner takes a tumble down the stairs in the middle of the night, the casual favor has turned into a nightmare.Can James solve the mystery of who killed Lessner before he finds himself the main suspect?
