It's the priest's first confession of the day.

"Someone I met in the library while my husband was away on business," begins the woman, her voice scarcely audible.

"David, that was his name...he was after the same book as me. Coincidence. We began chatting and he asked me out for a drink. Sounds awfully cliched. I don't normally drink as such, the odd gin and tonic."
