  A Saint by Name. A Pawn in Rome. A Forbidden Love. And a Steadfast Friend . 
  Rome 999AD. Brother Galen never sought sainthood. But in the heart of Rome, where popes make kings and cardinals plot in shadows, choice is an illusion. Will Galen become a symbol of holy power—prized, controlled, and trapped inside the glittering halls of the Lateran Palace? 
  By his side stands Alcuin, his loyal friend and gifted illuminator, who sees the danger closing in as Rome’s ruthless factions circle. Alcuin knows the Church’s praise can turn to poison, and even the purest faith may not protect Galen from those eager to exploit him. 
  But as the political games tighten their grip, Galen risks everything to protect Cara, a young woman fleeing a brutal fate, whose trust in him awakens forbidden desires he has long tried to bury. In a world where every decision carries a price, Galen must navigate faith, ambition, and temptation. 
  Path of Sainthood is a sweeping medieval tale of power, loyalty, and forbidden love in a world where sainthood may be the most dangerous fate of all. 
  ✔ Ruthless Church politics and court intrigue 
  ✔ A reluctant saint caught in a battle for power 
  ✔ Forbidden love and moral conflict 
  ✔ Unbreakable friendship tested by ambition and desire 
  ✔ A richly detailed medieval world

  Throughout the Third Reich, millions of Germans pledged allegiance to Adolf Hitler. In the Bavarian village of Schwarzenfeld, they followed an American citizen. 
  Fr. Viktor Koch, C.P., has quietly ministered to the people of Schwarzenfeld throughout the war. In a time of oppression, he has struggled to keep their faith alive, despite the watchful eyes of Nazi authorities. 
  As he peacefully resists efforts to end his missionary work, Fr. Viktor wrestles with his heritage and identity. Why does he feel rooted in Germany? Is he following a higher calling or bound by the mystical forces of his ancestry? Awakened to the tyranny of Nazi rule, his followers risk prison to express their dissent. Relying upon his ingenuity to protect them, Fr. Viktor finds a grudging ally in a Nazi charity worker who confiscated his monastery. 
  In April 1945, American liberators arrive in Schwarzenfeld and make a gruesome discovery: the SS have left a mass grave of concentration camp victims on the village’s border. Enraged by the sight, the American commander holds the town responsible. He issues a chilling ultimatum—the villagers must dig up and properly bury each of the 140 corpses within 24 hours, or every German man in town will be executed. 
  With time running out, Fr. Viktor must perform a miracle. He must convince his countrymen that his followers are not the enemy. Their humanity is still intact. And most of all, they are innocent.
