This intriguing novel crosses time and space to shed light on a pivotal point in history. A young TV reporter flies from New York to Jerusalem to cover a fast-breaking story: the inexplicable death of Jesus of Nazareth. Besides the woman reporter from the present investigating the murder is Marcus, a soldier in the Roman Empire. Through them we come in contact with everyone involved with Jesus' death: Pilate, Herod, Judas, the soldiers who guarded the tomb, and others miraculously cured by Jesus. In this imaginary world characters ride on jet planes and watch television and meet Roman soldiers who still carry swords and ride on horseback. People from the past and present talk to each other, become friends. The two times are kept separate and yet are one, just as they are when we read the Gospel accounts. Something magical happens.
