A writer visits a quaint English Cathedral town and discovers its goings-on are stranger than fiction. When Evan J. Kirby, an eminent American expert on heaven and hell, arrives in Barrowcester to do some research, he finds the community in a less than blissful state. There is the bishop sharing his doubts with the confirmation class while his mother feeds marijuana cookies to Evan's landlady to unleash her psychic powers.

When Evan delves into the true origins of the local saint, a macabre and romantic sequence of events begins to unfold.
