Everything is changing in Rossmore. No longer a sleepy Irish town, where young people leave to travel the world; nowadays it's a prosperous place, so busy that a new bypass has been proposed. The people of Rossmore are divided, particularly since the road will go right through the Whitethorn Woods & the well dedicated to St Ann. It's a well thought by some to have near spiritual properties & by others dismissed as superstition. No one is more concerned than the honest & well-meaning curate Father Brian Flynn, who has no idea which faction to support.
