What if an ancient medical tool from the day of Jesus' death became a secret family treasure? How will it affect the lives of the family and its descendants? Discover the riveting tale of The Cannula From Golgotha, an intriguing work of fiction by author Vic Maro. On the day of Jesus Christ's crucifixion, Marius Aura - a physician in the court of Herod Antipas - ordered to attend to other corpses, mislaid and lost a surgical device known then and now as a cannula. This was a surgical tool used to cleanse and dress the crucified body of Christ. The cannula was playfully and surreptitiously taken that day by a pair of young children. They brought it home to their father who prized and kept it as a secret family treasure. Centuries later, the story continues on to the latter part of the twentieth century where a descendant of that family, Stanzi, a Sicilian youth, migrates to the USA to become an assassin for his uncle, a head of a small East Coast Mafioso family. Stanzi goes through troubled times in America - until the cannula reappears and plays a significant role in changing his family's life. This ancient instrument had long been the missing, treasured, family heirloom of Stanzi's ancestral family. As his life - and soul - hangs in the balance, it resurfaces to affirm his redemption, and saves his wife's life as well. Weaving fact and fiction, author Vic Maro creates a fascinating tale that will grab readers until the very lat page!
