Criado en un mundo de estrictas reglas y castigos implacables, sus días transcurren entre la rutina de limpiar los pasillos de la institución y los paseos obligatorios por el pueblo, donde un sueño lejano lo mantiene vivo: conocer a Jane, la hija del alcalde.La relación entre ambos es un amor no correspondido, una ilusión que se convierte en el motor de su existencia. Mientras lucha por acercarse a ella, John se ve atrapado en las manipulaciones de las autoridades del orfanato, quienes, impulsadas por sus propios intereses, lo mantienen cautivo tanto física como emocionalmente. A medida que la trama avanza, se revelan secretos oscuros sobre el pasado de los personajes y las motivaciones detrás de las figuras de autoridad en su vida.El niño del hospicio es una novela de crecimiento y desesperanza, donde la lucha por el amor y la libertad se enfrenta a las estructuras de poder que buscan controlarlo. Entre la magia de unos lápices misteriosos y la brutalidad del mundo que lo rodea, John descubrirá que el verdadero reto no está solo en escapar, sino en encontrar su propia voz y sentido de pertenencia en un lugar que no le ofrece ningún futuro.
