Description
The sailor is a mature man who has dropped out of society. Since meeting Sister Russell, a nun who ministers to the down and out, his life has become bearable again. But when he returns to Saint Laurent Boulevard, Richard Daudelin is seen, and accused by another man of being involved in the murder of an innocent, back when Daudelin was mixed up with the dangerous elements of society. Daudelin's memories and guilt begin to overtake his quiet present life. This is a moving novel about a tormented spirit, about guilt and innocence; Michael Deslisle has written a true novel of the soul.
