The Patron Saint of Lost Souls follows the intriguing lives of two women navigating their unique paths in Cambridge.

Jude runs a one-of-a-kind antiques shop, where she aids customers in finding the perfect talisman to fulfil their deepest desires. Despite her talent for matchmaking the objects in her shop with those who seek them, Jude's own life is missing the love she longs for, a gap that begins to close when she unexpectedly 'inherits' a niece, disrupting her carefully managed world.

Meanwhile, Viola is intensely focused on her ambition to become Head Chef at one of Cambridge's top restaurants. Her culinary dreams are interrupted when she continually encounters widower Mathieu. These encounters lead her to realise that there is more to life than the confines of her bustling kitchen.

As both Jude and Viola face the challenges and surprises that life throws their way, they embark on transformative journeys of love and self-discovery, each finding new dimensions to their lives that they never imagined possible.
