All for One Child
The cloistered world of St. Alberic's Monastery becomes a battleground of secrets, spiritual quests, and human frailty. Fourteen-year-old Paul, raised among monks who both nurture and dismiss him, faces the upheaval of a community in transition. When the reluctant and enigmatic Father Jacob, an Apsalooke man with a tragic past, is unexpectedly elected abbot, Paul finds himself wrestling with feelings of betrayal, loss, and the weight of unspoken truths. Amid shifting power dynamics and the echoes of unresolved grief, Paul seeks a sense of belonging while navigating the often harsh realities of monastic life. Through vividly drawn characters and a narrative rich with tension, All for One Child explores themes of identity, resilience, and the complexities of faith. As Paul embarks on a reluctant journey away from the only home he's known, this story explores the intersection of tradition, change, and the deep bonds that form within unconventional families.
