Two brothers face challenges at sea. A man with special blood approaches his foreboding doom. In a dystopian future, Scouts reflect on the giant leap of mankind. Aided by her friends, an ill girl begins to conquer her challenges. A death row prisoner reaches out for help. A homeless man is absolved from his sins. An old sea captain develops unique plans for his funeral. An actor performs his most difficult role.
The stories in Absolution explore the psychological, emotional, and spiritual struggles of life and death. The characters are enlivened as they strive for value, significance, and meaning.
Is absolution the answer they seek?
