Plot
Karl-Artur like most of the priest loves God deeply, but he doesn´t have much people skills. In this part of the series he gets involved with Anna Svärd an indecisive sales agent, after breaking up abruptly with Charlotte. Karl's only intentions are to find a woman to help him to pay his bill and forget about poverty for good, on the other hand Anna is eager to marry anyone to have a better life. But the unimaginable is about to occur, Thea is back which will give the story a grotesque spin.
