Rome called him Centurion. The Judean desert called him a fool. He called himself a soldier of truth.
Marcus Longinus is a man of iron and law, a veteran of Rome's brutal frontier wars. But when a routine execution in the backwater province of Judea ends in a darkened sun and an empty tomb, Marcus is given the most dangerous assignment of his career. Pontius Pilate has a problem: a rumor of resurrection is threatening to ignite a revolution. His order to Marcus is simple: Find the body. Silence the lie.
What follows is a high-stakes investigation through the heart of first-century Palestine. From the bustling docks of Capernaum to the hidden upper rooms of Jerusalem, Marcus tracks the witnesses of the Nazarene. He interviews a fisherman who walked on water, a scholar who speaks of being born again, and a woman who was offered water that never runs dry.
But as the evidence mounts, the professional skeptic begins to crumble. Marcus isn't just finding facts; he is encountering a Kingdom that doesn't need soldiers to hold it together. When the hunter becomes the hunted, Marcus must decide where his true allegiance lies. Will he defend the Eagle of Rome, or surrender to the King of Kings?
