The Deacon Who Could Never Be a Priest

About the Book

Unaided and wrongly directed by an abusive father and an over religious grandmother, young Dalton Harris was forced into a life pattern not of his choosing.

The Catholic Training School initiated him into a diversity of physical abuse and unwanted sexual practices. Every day occurrences initiated by the Brothers went unrestricted and without option, as they misdirected the minds of their young students. Escaping from this lifestyle became mandatory for Dalton following a harrowing experience he was expected to ignore and forget.

Finding a normal life, after years of secrecy suddenly changed while on his honeymoon with his new wife Stella. This forced him back to the life he'd escaped from.

He lived a life of indecision, while he struggled with the vows he made to the church. He had to make a decision to join the Devil, walk with God, or take charge of the only life he would ever have.

The decision was made for him unexpectedly, enabling him to live the life he never thought he would have.
