After years of incurring his grandfather's wrath, fourteen-year-old Archie is left with the angry old prophet's dying pronouncement, "Young man, you are a saint!" Archie knows he's no saint, but when radiant Clare appears in town and proclaims him her partner on the path to sainthood, he is eager to believe. Archie's personal journey is believably wrought. Readers will be swept along on the journeys of both of these true seekers.
