Touched by Mary's sacrifice and horrified by the superstitions and pagan beliefs the villagers cling to, he sets out to bring light and salvation to Porthmorvoren by building a chapel on the hill. But the village has many secrets, and not everyone wants to be saved. As Mary and Gideon find themselves increasingly drawn together, jealousy, rumour and suspicion are rife. Gideon has demons of his own to face, and soon Mary's enemies are plotting against her...
