Philo, a first-century Phoenician boy, is worried about his family.
Evil hangs over their house like a cloud. And it all seems to come
from his sister, Illyrica, who is possessed by a demon. Hearing
about a prophet from Nazareth who has healed the sick and even
raised the dead, Philo wonders if He can save his sister. But the
mere mention of the prophet's name sends Illyrica into fits of rage
and despair. Even if the prophet really is as powerful as people
say He is, how can Philo and his little sister, Ione, take Illyrica
to Him to be healed? Hopeless, Philo runs away and goes to live
with his uncle in Capernaum, where he hears even more about the
Jewish prophet and His miracles. Who is He? How strong is His
power? Most of all, would the Jewish prophet help Philo, a Gentile?
This gripping story of revenge and forgiveness, sickness and
healing, and evil and grace traces the footsteps of Jesus of
Nazareth-to the places He walked and the people He touched.
