Embark on a captivating journey through the ancient world with Rachel, a riveting tale set in the 1st Century AD during the tumultuous time of Jesus and Roman occupation.

Born to a Jewish family in 48 AD on the mystical island of Crete, Greece, Rachel is chosen by the enigmatic Magras to be initiated into the spiritual and martial arts at a young age. In the winter of 62 AD, a boat carrying two mysterious passengers-Josephus, a young priest on a mission to Rome, and a man named Paul-arrives in the Kaloi Limenes Port of Crete. When Rachel, now fourteen, meets Josephus, she can't know that their encounter will spark a journey filled with passion, adventure, and profound revelations.

Follow Rachel as she navigates the complexities of love, enlists as a soldier, conspires, revolts, endures the hardships of slavery, and bears witness to the birth of the Roman gospels. As the Great Jewish Revolt of 66 A.D. looms, Josephus and Rachel return to Judea-and are thrust into the heart of a conflict that will shape the course of history.

Accompanied by an extensively researched list of notes that delve into the historical tapestry woven by its characters, this sweeping epic offers a unique perspective on the events that shaped the course of human history, and invites readers to decide for themselves the truth about Christianity's very foundation.
