This novel tells the story of the centurion who investigates the disappearance of Jesus' body. It also tells the story of Pilate's niece who is forced to marry the centurion and also forced to infiltrate the followers of Jesus to see if they are plotting against Rome. The novel made the people I have read about in the Bible come to life. It gave insight to political, religious groups and figures such as Pilate, Herod, the Sanhedrin, the Pharisees, etc. It gave a glimpse as to what it would have been like to live in the days after the crucifixion of Jesus. I would like to read it again.
