The saga continues as Yosef and Miriam settle into life in Nazara. They are blessed with children, but Herod, the ruler of Judea has ordered the death of all males between the age of two and four. Their youngest, Yeshua, falls into this category. This is the thrilling tale of Yeshua Cu Cuileann, son of Yosef of Arimathea and Miriam bat Helios. Known as the Day Star who is destined to save mankind, Yeshua does his best to ignore the prophesies of his birth and to lead as normal a life as possible.
It is also the story of a love that was meant to be. Mariamne bat Herod Philip is the granddaughter of Herod the Great. She meets Yeshua at the young age of seven and it doesn't take long for her to fall head over heels for this atypical aristocrat. Although Yeshua returns the sentiment, power, intrigue and a horrific secret keeps him from declaring himself.
From the depths of Egypt where he has gone into hiding, to his education at Qumran and eventually Jerusalem under the tutelage of the esteemed Rabbi Gamaliel, the wonders of Yeshua's childhood are brought to life. The missing years of this esteemed youth are also revealed as we explore his travels through the Eastern lands to learn from the greatest sages of old.
Will he be able to curtail the horrific evils he has uncovered? Will he find a way to stop those in power who want to keep the masses enslaved? And what lies in store for Yeshua and Mariamne of Magdala? Will he need to give her up to keep her safe, or will they be together for all time?
