Inhaltsangabe

Will their lifelong secret love outlast their insular, homophobic island’s rancour?

Gordon and Allan, boys from a peasant background, grow up in neighbouring villages in tiny, violently homophobic Saint Vincent, and vow to be lifelong lovers in a secret relationship. Both complete their university studies in Montreal and London, respectively, where LGBTQ folk are tolerated. But their secret lives come at the expense of others — notably Gordon’s wife, Maureen, who is the first one to be irreparably harmed. Maureen has confided her painful secrets to an accusatory diary, and it is now up to Gordon to keep that diary from local media, and the unforgiving eyes of the authorities, or he and Allan will be the next victims of this beautiful and hidebound island.
