A dark story of a family moulded by abuse, neglect, a love betrayed, hate and sibling rivalry. Genes, fate and dogma govern the lives of Emily and her two sons John and Frank. A stranger provides the catalyst that will direct all their futures. Guilt preys heavily on John for the unwitting part he played in the deaths of two family members. Once a devout Catholic, part of him wants to seek the relief of absolution, but he no longer believes in God. To atone he makes fundamental mistakes and becomes 'The Misguided Samaritan' John considers himself a befriender of the young and vulnerable and we learn of the terrible paths trodden by them leading to this 'Misguided Samaritan.'
