Brother Lustig

Description of the book

Brother Lustig was a soldier who got dismissed from the army. He wandered around when he one day stumbled upon a beggar who he shared his food with. Surprisingly the beggar turned out to be Saint Peter. The two men continued their journey together. Saint Peter was healing people. Brother Lustig was trying to "steal" Saint Peter’s trade and heal people himself. It is of course not that easy so shortly after Lustig was left alone, he found himself in trouble. Will Lustig’s intentions to help others will get him into Heaven or his tricks will send him to Hell?
