description: Marcus, son of Senator Decimus Varitor, is a decanus in the Roman cohort in Jerusalem. His tribune hints at a promotion to centurion if Marcus can bring in Barabbas. There are really only two things Marcus really wants-to be a centurion and to win the love of an Egyptian girl. When Meskhanet is sent to Rome on a slave ship and Marcus is captured by the very brigand he's supposed to apprehend, those hopes may both evaporate faster than a small puddle under the hot desert sun. "Anne Baxter Campbell has created the perfect hero-with his flaws and all. She has created the perfect heroine-one who doesn't want to fall in love. She has created the perfect story-one filled with conflict that will keep you turning the pages. A masterful portrait of the First Century painted with both history and romance." Fay Lamb "Author Anne Baxter Campbell has done it again, releasing yet another page-turning thriller, laced with romance and tension. Don't miss it!" ***Kathi Macias (www.kathimacias.com) is the author of more than 40 books. She lives in Southern California with her husband, Al.
