1.3 The Good Life by Una McCormack
On a distant Island, a group of holy men and women work together to keep the Balance. Elta, one of the Shore-folk, has come to learn. But there's a new man on the Island - the first in living memory - and it's not clear whether he's saint or sinner.

Is it only coincidence that the weather seems more changeable these days? That people are angrier and turning to violence? Where, wonders Elta, is this all heading - and does the stranger even know himself?
