The New Pope: The New Pope

By Alfonso G. Albacete

Four young men enter the seminary on the outskirts of Assisi, Italy. They become close friends and make a pact: all of them will make it to the Vatican and one of them, with the others' support, will become pope. Their purpose: to renew the Church. For one of them, love will come knocking, but he will have to renounce it due to his firm commitment to make it to the Vatican.Roland Nowak has an additional mission: to find his uncle who fled his native Poland during World War II, never to be heard from again. Everything would seem to indicate that he settled in Cuba. It will not be an easy task, but Roland must fulfill the promise he made to his father on his deathbed.Throughout the book, Faith and Reason engage in a constant dialogue.The battle between the ultra-conservative and liberal factions at the Vatican gives rise to a plot that culminates in the unthinkable. In a tightly-sealed conclave, one of the four friends is finally elected pope. This will be the pope who will attempt to change the Church despite innumerable obstacles...
