Shadow in the Dark, 1 - Antony Barone Kolenc

An attack by bandits in the middle of the night leaves a young boy with no memory of who he is or where he is from. Nursed back to health by the devoted monks in a Benedictine abbey, he takes the name Alexander, or Xan for short. Aided by the kindly Brother Andrew, Xan commits himself to finding out who he really is. Does he have a family? Are they still alive? And who--or what--is the shadowy figure creeping around the abbey in the dead of night? 2020 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards, Gold: YA Fiction - Horror/Mystery/Suspense An attack by bandits in the middle of the night leaves a young boy with no memory of who he is or where he is from.
