For the first century private detective, Jake Jezreel, his whole life had been gloriously transformed by believing in Jesus Christ. But suddenly, in the afterglow of those happy days after Jesus' resurrection, the world suddenly collapsed in on top of Jake. The hammer of religious persecution fell upon the Christian church in Jerusalem. The chief priests and zealous religious leaders savagely chased after all of Christ's believers, as the leaders attempted to wipe the Christian 'cult' from the face of the earth. And the violent persecution of Christ's followers had a sinister face to it - Saul of Tarsus! Jake found himself and his pretty secretary, Hannah, caught in the onslaught and on the run. The persecution was crashing in all around them. Christians were being imprisoned. Some were being brutalized. Some were being killed. Jake and Hannah stayed one jump ahead of the devouring enemy. But how long could they avoid the clutches of the vicious mob hunting for them? As they ran for their lives, a completely bizarre mystery began to unfold right before their very eyes. It haunted their every step and crouched in every dark, hidden corner. What was happening? The elusive mystery had no explanation. No rhyme nor reason. Or did it? Wherever they hid, the religious terror prowled right outside the door. Could Jake and Hannah somehow dodge the relentless menace? If they were caught, what brutal tactics would Saul and the authorities savage upon them? Jake knew that time was running out for them and the walls were slowly crushing in upon them.
