Its one of the greatest mysteries of all time, and General Marcus Germanicus Crassus, trusted friend of the Emperor and loyal servant of Rome, is about to commit his considerable talents to solving it.

Where, in the hotbed of political intrigue called Palestine, does the truth lie, and what is its portent for Rome?With all the skills of a forensic detective, Crassus begins his intricate investigation into the case, refusing to accept any supernatural suggestions as relevant, focusing only on human desires and weaknesses as the driving factors behind events; in his experience, it is here that the answer always lies.But Crassus, too, is only a man, and as he reaches the culmination of his investigation, will the discovery of a shocking truth cloud his duty to Rome?A powerful and thought-provoking journey into the beginnings of Christianity as we know it today.Jim Tate worked, for over twenty-eight years, for the worlds largest commercial banknote printer as security controller.His residential duties included the Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand and Kenya printing works in addition to many of the companys factories throughout the United Kingdom.
