To the arrogant members of the board, lineage, wealth, and social status inherently guarantee their right to power and control. This group of privileged Anglicans - citizens from the village of Abersthwaithe on the small island of Ischalton believe they can use their elevated role to govern over those they consider insignificant. One lone group stands against them. The legal officers of St. Patrick’s church in the village struggle to retain their authority against the board, but it is a fight that will take immense strength. The board employs every form of moral turpitude possible in its quest for victory. They lure the people from surrounding villages-the very people they despise-to help them gnaw at the fabric which binds them together as a church and as a community. The betrayal, adultery, and murder among the members of the Board, juxtaposed with the ignorance, naiveté, and pitiable simplemindedness of the villagers, weaves a complex tapestry of circumstances which threaten to bring the steeple of contradiction crumbling to the ground-and could forever alter the future of Abersthwaithe. The Ecclesiastical Chronicles is the first in a stunning new series by Raymond Gordon that explores how the relentless pursuit to fulfill ambition eventually leads to ultimate destruction.
