A rich and beautiful story, set in a quiet cathedral city. When
cathedral dean Adam Ayscough encounters clockmaker Isaac Peabody,
their unlikely friendship touches the lives of the entire
community. Behind the dean's fearsome reputation lies a humble man
crippled by shyness. Desperate to leave behind a lasting legacy of
goodness, his only wishes are to serve God and his parishioners,
and to be loved by his young and dissatisfied wife. Haunted by the
memories of a miserable childhood, gifted clockmaker Isaac Peabody
has spent a lifetime perfecting his craft and rejecting all belief
in God. Despite their fundamental differences, both men find a
common understanding, and discover that faith can come in many
different guises. What readers are saying about THE DEAN'S WATCH
