Mario Dell'Olio I am working on 2 books right now. I am querying The New Men: Loss of Innocence. Based on actual events, The New Men is a scandalous story of self-discovery, sexual abuse, and hypocrisy. Three young men, filled with idealism and an abundance of hope, travel to Vatican City to become priests entering a world of sex, faith, and political intrigue. Tarnished and disillusioned, they emerge from their journeys to face the truth about love and loss. They are left to put the pieces of their shattered lives back together.
