description: All your life,  you dreamed about the City of God. Now that you're there,  you want to go home. But  you can't. Your name  is Rivka Meyers, and you are a total misfit. You time-traveled  from 21st century Jerusalem back to the year AD 57. Misfit. You're a woman  living in a culture where men buy their wives. Misfit. You married  the man who followed you back in time, but you're a Christian, and he's Jewish. Misfit. You have  a photographic memory, and that's your curse. Because you read all the history books and you know what's coming. Disaster for the City of God. There's  an old man in this city you love. He's kind to everyone. He treats you like a human. Even though you're a woman. And you know he's going to die. Because  you read his story in the history books. He is James, the brother of Jesus of Nazareth. The leader of the Jesus Movement in Jerusalem. And in the year AD 62, he's going to be murdered by the same family of priests who hounded Jesus to the cross. This man James  has five years to live. You know very well you can't change the future. Your husband,  Ari Kazan, is a physicist who tells you every day you can't change the future. But  it's your moral duty to change the future. You are  a stubborn cuss. Always have been. Always will be. If there's  a way to get around the laws of physics, you're going to find it. Because you love  James with your whole heart. You would  rather die than let him be murdered. You may  just get your wish. About The BookPremonition  is a time-travel suspense novel that mixes science, history, religion, romance, and suspense. It's about becoming the person you were meant to be. It's about learning to accept harsh reality when you'd really rather quit and go home. It's about being a badass fighter for justice, even when you're fresh out of easy answers to hard questions. Premonition  won the 2004 Carol award for best Christian historical novel. Premonition  will take you on a wretched, miserable, dangerous adventure through the filthy, bandit-ridden streets of first-century Jerusalem. Premonition  is the second novel in the City of God  Book 1: Transgression (A.D. 57) Book 2: Premonition (A.D. 57-62) Book 3: Retribution (A.D. 62-66)
