Description
In 70 AD, Judea teeters on the brink of apocalypse. A young woman's fight for survival becomes intertwined with her husband's rebellion against Roman rule. As she awaits execution, an unlikely friendship blossoms between Shelamzion and her austere jailor, Fabius Cornelius Grammaticus. With time running out, Shelamzion turns to Grammaticus to record the true events behind the insurrection that led to the destruction of her country. But as history is reworked, a traitor's hand secretly shapes the narrative. A poignant and imaginative story, beautifully written and full of vivid detail, this book brings human behavior from a lesser-known period to life. A powerful and unexpected twist at the end reassures us that humanity remains present even in the darkest of times.
