Emperor and the Ring

Rome ruled Judah in the first century, but neither party wanted the other. The book is action-packed and takes place in ancient Judah as well as in the Colosseum of downtown Rome. Two Hebrew cousins experience great atrocities and feel that they have no other hope than to attempt to cross the sea to reach Rome and seek an audience with the emperor. Along the way, they both evade and experience traumatic events as they seek out an opportunity to get their family back. They meet changers of history as they, themselves, become part of Hebrew history books.
