Title: Be near me
First published: 2009
Description: Father David Anderton is assigned to a crippled Scottish town on the Ayrshire coast, where sectarianism is rife. He is a cultivated -- if naive and unworldly -- man, ill-suited to his new parish. Drifting from his peers, he is drawn to Mark and Lisa, a feral teenage couple who attend the nearby school. Their untamed nights of booze and drugs are as exotic and entrancing to him as his solitary and cloistered life is to them. But, as events take a perilous direction, this combustible liasion will leave Father David's world in pieces.
Subjects: Drama, Clergy, Problem youth, Fiction, Scandals, Catholic Church, British and irish drama (dramatic works by one author)
