The Beginning Of The End[1] is a YA, post-apocalyptic novel set in purgatory. It is the first of a three-part series that follows the story of Søren, Caelian, and Esther as they travel through a ruined Italy to escape the dying planet.

Søren and his brother Caelian go on the run after one of them commits an act of sin that will doom them if they aren't forgiven.
Their only hope is to travel through lawless territory to reach the Church which can help them escape purgatory, but when they arrive they are faced with a decision that will impact the rest of their lives.
They must embark on a journey with Esther, escaping from her own turmoil as she turns her back on the Church to save the life of her child.
Each race from a dooming certainty of losing their souls if they don't make it to the gates before their pasts catch up to them.
