The Devil's Disciple background

The Devil's Disciple

In the midst of the Revolutionary War, a wayward family member and the local minister uncover their true callings, leading to a transformative journey of self-discovery.

In a small New England town during the American War of Independence, a Puritan named Dick Dudgeon is mistaken for a local minister and arrested by the British. He then pretends to be the reverend, refusing to accuse another human of suffering. The minister's wife, Judith, is drawn to Dick's actions and mistakenly believes they're a sign of his love for her.
