Author Description

Late 200s AD. Rome, though a shadow of its former glory, is still the most powerful city on earth. Into this metropolis comes a lost and lonely boy, whose dark past and uncertain future could lead to either tragedy or triumph. His journey takes him from the lowest pits of slavery to the promise of being the Emperor's adopted son. Though he has all the riches and glories of the world in his grasp, his newfound faith in God promises him eternal life...though it may cost him everything to obtain it. Based on the true story of four saints: St. Pancras, Sts. Nerius and Achilleus, and St. Domitilla, this story traces their lives, their struggles, and ultimately their triumph over death.
