The Balcer Redemption

Philip Balcer's retreat at a Franciscan monastery in southern Maine serves as a backdrop for his deep spiritual turmoil. Haunted by the traumatic memory of his brother Peter's death from gunshot wounds three decades ago, Philip grapples with guilt and an inability to recall crucial moments from their past. Despite his lack of religious faith, he seeks healing and solitude, feeling a profound connection to Peter while struggling with the sense of failure in their relationship.
