Against the tableau of the twighlight of the Roman Empire-soon to be torched by the mad Nero-is a love story that transends time.

Story of Rome. Young Sara a Jewish slave has become a Christian. In her mistress Diana she sees a spark of faith. Antonius, Diana's brother is a Tribune of Rome searching for something more. Against the tableau of the twilight of the Roman Empire--soon to be torched by the mad Nero--is a love story that transcends time. Author Darlene Mindrup takes you into the past to live in the times of the Roman Empire very realistically. A VERY GOOD READ.
