How can two men build a relationship when one must tear down each stone that the other has worked hard to build?
After a misspent youth, Brother Mark is a hard working Benedictine monk working as a stone mason at Tavistock Abbey. He finds himself irrevocably drawn to one of the men sent by King Henry to audit the monasteries prior to closure. Andrew Cheyne is fascinated by the handsome young man and breaks down the monk's boundaries with an ease that neither expected. When Andrew returns four years later to finally close the Abbey, each man must come to terms with their past to attempt to plan a future they can share -- but fate plays a cruel trick on them. Or, as Mark wonders, is it God teaching him a lesson?
Attempting to forget Mark, Andrew commences a new life, but fate has more lessons in store for him yet.
