Father Frank by Paul Burke

Father Frank is a great story!

This story starts in Kilburn in London and watches a young boy accidentally become a priest. It's a really good story with some interesting and very likeable characters. The book weaves a feel good plot with a love story, which for a book about the priesthood sounds unlikely!
It is something that I found interesting as a non-catholic but wonder what devout catholics might feel about the story and the situation this wonderful priest finds himself in.

From the Big Apple to the bitten apple, Frank soon discovers that the tempting sins of the flesh have consequences; when Frank becomes a real father, he realises he is going to need a miracle to feed the five thousand...
