This novel explores the religious and social controversies of Edwardian England through the life of Richard Meynell, a clergyman whose progressive beliefs challenge the orthodox views of his time. As Meynell faces opposition from both the Church and society, he becomes a symbol of moral courage and intellectual struggle in a rapidly changing world. The story delves deep into issues of faith, reform, and the personal cost of standing up for one's principles.
