It is the year AD 62. The notorious Roman emperor Nero ordered Marco Junio Vitalis, a seasoned military general, to assist him in a most peculiar legal proceeding. Vitalis interrogates an elderly Jewish fisherman called Peter, who many years earlier had been a close friend of a man known as Jesus—the same Jesus condemned to death in Jerusalem by Pontius Pilate. Loyal to the emperor, Vitalis determined to do everything in his power to expose the truth about this strange new religious sect before it undermines Roman rule. So it is, through the course of interrogation between veteran soldier and detainee, that a story emerges that will shake the very foundations of the Roman Empire.

Got this book years ago from Logos Hope (ship bookstore) and I just decided to read it ^^;.
The summary kinda explains the whole book and it is very light and a good read. It doesn’t try to convert but somehow it gets you to think as the language written so constructively fitting.
my rating will be 3.5/5⭐️ combined and I do recommend it to those who love to read historical and religious books !!
