the author

Umberto Iaccino

 Canadian born writer with Italian and Mexican roots, blending cultural depth with a passionate curiosity for life’s biggest questions. A personal trainer by profession, Umberto believes in the connection of mind, body, and soul, a philosophy that shapes both his life and his storytelling.

    “ In my youth, comic books sparked a love for narrative that eventually led me to the works of Dan Brown, Anne Rice, and Gabriel García Márquez, among many others. Their stories not only entertained me but opened my mind to the power of literature and planted the seed for his own creative journey.”

      Lost In The Divine Plan is Umberto’s debut novel, an ambitious work born from years of reflection, imagination, and personal history. Drawing from his Catholic upbringing and inspired by the stories his father shared about life in a small Italian village, Umberto explores faith, mystery, and identity through the character of Franco. This book is both a tribute to heritage and a bold exploration of spiritual curiosity.

      Writing this novel was a long held dream, and now that the first story is told, many more are ready to follow.
