The Priest is a novel by Patricia Nell Warren, originally published in 1976 and relaunched in 2007. The story follows Tom Meeker, a young priest who arrives at a small rural parish in the Rocky Mountains. There he meets Vidal Stump, a gay mixed-race Indian with a troubled past. As Tom tries to help Vidal, he finds himself attracted to him, leading him to question his vows and his faith. The novel explores themes of faith, forbidden love, and the struggle for acceptance in a conservative community.
