For Your Penance

Father Marleski is the chairman of the philosophy department at Duquesne University, in Pittsburgh, and often sought after on the lecture circuit for his ardent views. He captivates his students and conferences with the compelling issues of truth, overriding the corruption in politics of the day. He constantly urges his listeners to undo any wrong that government or politics might have decreed. The recurring theme in his lectures is that people need to get involved, even if it means risking civil disobedience. Little does he know that he now is the subject of his own beliefs. His short stint in the confessional brings him in to play with an elderly man who wants to confess his sin of thirty-five years ago: A murder of the son of a high ranking policeman. Marleski is torn between his duties, training, and strict regimen as a priest, and his own gratifying, well applauded career as a philosopher.Sestili, Rich is the author of 'For Your Penance' with ISBN 9781588517357 and ISBN 1588517357.
