On a clear night in March 1923, as Dr Paddy Muldoon makes his way home in Mohill, Co. Leitrim, a man steps from the shadows,raises a rifle to his shoulder and fires. The first shot misses its target, but when two more are fired, Dr Muldoon is left dying on the road.
In the days following the murder the doctor's grieving but determined wife,Rita, vows to bring the man she believes responsible to justice - a volatile priest by the name of Fr Edward Ryans. He is a man of the cloth with dark secrets and his own ugly reasons for wanting the doctor silenced. But in their fight for justice, Rita and her family come to see that there are powerful forces at the highest levels of the government, Church and republican forces who desperately want the case to remain unsolved.
