Valeria is a devout Christian who lives in a time when Christianity is illegal, and Christians are persecuted by the Roman Empire.Valeria's faith is put to the test when she falls in love with a Roman soldier named Marcus. As their relationship develops, Valeria must decide whether to renounce her faith and marry Marcus or remain true to her beliefs and face the consequences.The novel also explores the lives of other early Christians and their struggles to practice their faith in a hostile environment. The catacombs, underground tunnels and chambers used by early Christians for worship and burial, play a significant role in the story.Withrow's novel provides a glimpse into the early Christian era in Rome and the challenges faced by believers in a time of persecution.
