After losing his wife during childbirth, James Breckenridge becomes cold and bitter, a man who hides himself away and prefers the company of a bottle of whiskey over actual people.

Unable to bond with his young son, and unable to face the claustrophobic world of London's high-society, James fears he is doomed to live the rest of his life alone, unloved and miserable.
However, a chance encounter with a beautiful kind-hearted flapper sets off a chain of events that changes everything.

Set against the backdrop of the 1920s, The Widower is a story of loss, romance and the importance of hope.
