Be transported back through the very portals of time in the novel "Woman Of Sin".  In a time when Caesars ruled and Rome was at its height of authority and power.  Enter into a land harsh to the poor and kind to the rich and elite.  One where slavery was common and justice had little place.  A land and time where Jesus `the Nazarene' walked the earth in the midst of the injustice and chaotic darkness.  This is a gripping novel that will keep you coming back for more.Author Debra Diaz, in her fast paced novel, "Woman of Sin" takes you back through the centuries in her timeless classic.  Follow young Alysia down her road of capture from her place of privilege in her Athenian home, to a Roman household to be bound forever as a slave.  Taken from her home she loses everything, but she is yet to gain everything at the end of her road of travel.  She is about to find true love in every sense of the word.Author Debra Diaz elegantly and beautifully weaves an unforgettable story of true love, mirroring scenes taken from the scriptures, where young Alysia is tested by trials and tribulations back in a time where women were of little esteem, except for their purpose in child bearing.  Perseverance, romance, forbidden love, and endless unfailing love, take you on an adventure that you will not forget.With the use of beautiful, descriptive and explosive imagery, biblical scenes come alive as the author uses the "Woman of Sin" to introduce the reader to a man, a man called Jesus as He walked the earth and preached.  Some called him `rabboni' the word for `great teacher.'  Yet as the story unfolds you will see that he is more than a great teacher, for he can perform such miracles as healing a leper, healing the blind and the paralyzed, even raising the dead.  He was the Son of God walking the earth, the lamb without sin, crucified for our sins so that we might live. Without His resurrection from the cross, he would be little more than a famed teacher to once have graced this earth.  The author leads you to want to know more about this Jesus.Filled with suspense and romance, this novel is eloquently written and will take the reader back through time and lead you on a journey that is so real, so tangible, you'll not want it to end.  A true masterpiece! This book comes highly recommend.  You will not be able to put this one down, I assure you!  The book is truly a mini-series in the making.  Take a journey through the very portals of time, back through the centuries and experience the thrill of entering into a never-ending tale of undying love that will grip your very soul.
