description: This historical novel (with maps, edited scrolls, and sources) depicts the last days and tragic end of the Essenes, the Jewish sect credited with producing the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS). The story links the Essenes with personages of 'the sect within' (the Nazarenes), some of whom assembled with them in the wilderness near the Dead Sea to participate in the "final war" spoken of in their War Scroll. This war was to involve a conquering messiah, a heavenly host, and the Sons of Light against the Sons of Darkness.
