Claudia's life did not start easily. The illegitimate daughter of
Julia, reviled and exiled daughter of Caesar Augustus, Claudia
spends her childhood in a guarded villa with her mother and
grandmother. When Tiberius, who hates Julia, takes the throne,
Claudia is wrenched away from her mother to be brought up in the
palace in Rome. The young woman is adrift--until she meets Lucius
Pontius Pilate and becomes his wife. When Pilate is appointed
Prefect of the troublesome territory of Judea, Claudia does what
she has always done: she makes the best of it. But unrest is
brewing on the outskirts of the Roman Empire, and Claudia will soon
find herself and her beloved husband embroiled in controversy and
rebellion. Might she find peace and rest in the teaching of the
mysterious Jewish Rabbi everyone seems to be talking about?
Readers will be whisked through marbled palaces, dusty
marketplaces, and idyllic Italian villas as they follow the
unlikely path of a woman who warrants only a passing mention in one
of the Gospel accounts. Diana Wallis Taylor combines her impeccable
research with her flair for drama and romance to craft a tale
worthy of legend.
