One day, a mysterious visitor arrives with a challenge for the Locksmith that might at last change his fortunes for the better. But his wife falls ill, and the Locksmith has to make a choice - a choice that will force him to face his deepest secret. Poignant and heart-warming, The Locksmith's Wife is a bittersweet tale of redemption in a blighted marriage."
