The preacher has nothing important to do in life anymore because he is all alone in his life now. There was a time when he used to provide active service for his nation but those years have passed now. He has been working in Jack’s Bar for quite some time now and he thinks that it is a nice place to settle down permanently. One night he was closing the door of the bar when a woman entered the place with her son.
The woman was in a bad condition because she was beaten up quite badly. It was the doing of her husband and she was running away from him now. She wanted shelter and Preacher thinks that saying no to her was not the right way because he has never left anyone in a state of trouble. So he decides to provide shelter to Paige and her son.
After a short time, Paige’s husband also comes to Virgin River which starts the war which Preacher thought he would never have to fight. This is the same place that Robyn Carr described in One Wish and The Homecoming thus there would be a lot of familiar things in the scenes.
It feels good to enter the Virgin River again and again because it is a captivating place and tells us about the imaginative power of the author. The narrator is also the same, it was Therese Plummer who dealt with the previous parts of the series as well. The love increases and with it the intensity of war also rises and makes everything interesting for the audience in all the chapters.
