David Gerrard is a reporter for the tabloids with principals. He will only publish the ones he truly believes. For 10 years, Mark Long has been giving David stories from history and adding unique and substantial variations to each one. For the first time, Mark has requested a face to face meeting between them. Together they visit Mark's old friend, Tony Vargas, an expert on the Roman Empire period. Mark presents Tony with an ancient sword asking Tony to tell him exactly what it is. Tony states that it is a first century Roman sword and that it once belonged to a soldier named Casius; the name is engraved on the handle. When he and David are alone, Mark tells him that Tony was right; the sword had belonged to a Roman soldier named Casius. A Jew named Peter took the sword from Casius, and a Roman centurion took it from Peter. Mark tells him the centurion's name was Marcus Cartaphilus Longus. He had been stationed in Caesarea when he'd discovered his daughter was close to death. After learning Yeshua had reportedly saved others from death, Cartaphilus went in search him. But, his daughter died before he could reach Yeshua. Desolate over the death of his daughter and the subsequent death of his wife, Cartaphilus vowed to destroy Yeshua. Pontius Pilate was the Prefect of Judea, ordered extra troops to Jerusalem for the Jewish Passover, led by Cartaphilus. Upon arrival, Cartaphilus was ordered to arrest Yeshua. Led to Yeshua and his followers by a man named Judas Iscariot, a man named Peter grabbed Casius' sword and cut the ear off one of the men while trying to protect Yeshua. Miraculously, Yeshua picked up the severed ear and reattach it to the man's head. Cartaphilus placed Yeshua under arrest and led him to Jerusalem and the house of the High Priest. Over the next few days, Mark's story continues, reliving the final hours of Jesus Christ's life, and the following years. David listens carefully and questions often, impressed by Mark's in-depth account of this 2000 year old story. David becomes determined to disprove his story. He compares Mark's details to the Bible, and contacts a professional researcher, a genealogist, and a professor friend, asking them all questions to help him refute this story, but despite their best efforts they cannot. Over a few exhausting days David cannot find any flaws. The problem is, the only way Mark could know any of these details was if he had been an actual eyewitness, which is obviously impossible. Caught up in the emotion of the story, Mark had accidentally messed up by using the pronoun “we” instead of “they”. David, always vigilant, caught his slip on tape. Cornered by the recorded remark, Mark admits that he is Cartaphilus. David is angry at the waste of his time and thinks about leaving. But Mark says he doesn't need David to necessarily believe him, he needs him to believe the story; if David believes it, so will his readers and he needs to tell the world what really happened. David questions him about other events from the past 2000—including his participation in WWII as a Nazi—but Mark stops him, saying the stories must be told as they happened, not by skipping through the centuries. Mark hands him a daguerreotype of two men from the American Civil War, and David has it checked by experts. They all agree that the daguerreotype is authentic. One of the men in the picture is one of General Robert Lee's sons, and David has a very hard time telling himself the other is not Mark. David and the researchers have failed to disprove Mark's story. David allows himself to believe in the possibility that Mark is actually Cartaphilus. And if that is possible, how many other famous lies or half-truths throughout history could Mark have to share with him? Mark is called away on urgent business. Two months later, David receives a short email from Mark, stating when and where they should meet to continue. This time David is prepared.

Some of that might have been because I just happened to be reading it during Holy Week but I tend to think that it had more to do with how engaging the characters are. When Mark described The Passion, I felt his sadness. This book certainly hooked me in and I'm looking forward to seeing all the different places Mark will take us. Lead on Sir! I shall follow.

You feel like you are in the same room and eavesdropping in on the conversations of the characters. Details to the locations - present and past are magnificent. I can't wait to meet up with all the characters again and see where we go to next!- Sherri Lynn

Very well researched, references in the story are easily verified. The setting is described so well, one can imagine being in the same location as the characters, enjoying the views and walking alongside them. Extremely well written. Can't wait to read the next one! Highly recommended!
