although separated by three decades in age, the pair are kindred spirits - torn between their commitment to religion and their desire for more.

ancak onların dostluğu, aşkın gelişine karşı tehdit ediliyor. Thomas falls for james bower, who runs the local museum. Together, they develop an obsession with the vanished 19th-century female astronomer maria veduva, who is said to haunt a nearby manor.

inspired by maria, and the dawning realization that james may not reciprocate his feelings, thomas finds solace in studying the night skies.

could astronomy offer as much wonder as divine or earthly love? meanwhile, grace meets nathan, a fellow sixth former who represents a different, wilder kind of life.

they are passionately drawn together, but quickly pulled apart, casting grace into the wider world and far away from thomas.

in time, the mysteries of aldleigh are revealed, bringing thomas and grace back to each other and to a richer understanding of love, of the nature of the world, and the sheer miracle of being alive.
