From the shadows of Rome to the windswept frontier of Britannia. Marcus Marcellus carries a famous name. His great grandfather was the Roman centurion whose faith once astonished Jesus of Nazareth. Marcus inherited the reputation – but not the belief.

In Rome, faith in Christ is a crime. Yet in hidden gatherings, Marcus encounters men and women marked by discipline, courage and an unshakable peace. Curiosity becomes conviction. Surrender. Faith. Then persecution scatters the believers – and Marcus is sent to the cold north at the edge of the known world.

Britannia is raw, brutal and ruled by violence. There, Marcus uncovers a conspiracy built on greed and bloodshed. Exposing it means defying powerful men. Survival will require more than Roman steel – it will require trust in a God Marcus is learning to lean on.

A story for readers interested in Roman times and early Christianity in Britain, with themes of fellowship, enduring persecution, and standing up for right in a wicked world.
