A Crown of Thorns

The Spencer's are an affluent family. Robert is a successful solicitor with his own London practice. Gina leads a life of luxurious contentment until a tragedy strikes on their son's birthday, resulting in their move to the English country village of Millbridge. When the Spencer's arrive at Millbridge, Virginia meets Rector Byrnes, beginning an emotionally charged and passionate relationship. Jonathan Byrnes is in a vulnerable position struggling with his wife's inner demons, and his own loss of faith, and with no one to confide. Virginia is consumed with hatred towards God and a disgust of life but they find comfort in each other's weakness with dramatic consequences.
