Attempted Salvation with a Butter Knife

Matthew Dalton has survived years of drug abuse and other vices. He has reconciled his past and started fresh as an aspiring Catholic priest. But during his journey he encounters a difficult resistance. As he studies and lives as a priest, he meets two others just as dedicated as he is, but with different intentions. Their old-fashioned style leads to major conflicts. As they try to make things their way, Dalton becomes frustrated and threatened for himself and the future of the Church. It finally leads to Dalton's crime under extreme emotional duress and his imprisonment, where he writes the story of his life.
