Dive into this addictive historical thriller set in the decades following the death of Jesus Christ
The usual tranquility of the modest town of Capernaum is shattered by the murder of a young woman-a terrible and unexpected crime that entangles three very different figures: Elias, leader of the small Christian community, Lucius, the Roman centurion commanding the local garrison, and Gamaliel, a Pharisee who oversees the synagogue-and father of the victim. Who killed Miriam, and why? Step into mid-1st century Judea, a society simmering with social and political tensions that foreshadow the coming revolt against Roman rule, fueled in large part by radical nationalist groups-the so-called Zealots. At that time, the early Church had no defined doctrine, no organized structure, and no established liturgy. The Gospels had not yet been written. How did the first Christians live? What did they believe? What was their first major internal conflict? And how did their worship fit within the Judaism from which they emerged? A gripping historical novel filled with suspense, this opening volume of the trilogy unveils the origins and hidden struggles of the earliest Christian communities.
