Summary
Aldo gives Goffredo a slow once-over, eyebrow raised. “You didn’t think to iron that cassock?”
“This is ironed.”
“Is that what we’re calling it now? You’re about to meet the Pope and you look like a hungover priest,” Aldo retorts, folding his arms.
Goffredo Tedesco is not a prideful man. Or, at least, that's what he believes. But he sure is stubborn.
Call it fate, or divine intervention, Goffredo's life is about to change. For the better or for the worse he can't quite tell yet.Unexpected meeting with colleagues, difficult choices, new responsibilities, and the arrival of an estranged niece with her own ideas about family and grief, will force Tedesco to reckon with the life he's built.
As reluctant heart-to-hearts unfold, Tedesco walks a thin line between isolation and the fragile, unconventional family he’s managed—almost accidentally—to create.Or, Tedesco grieves, and comes out a better person.
