About this ebook

Julia has everything money can buy...except for acceptance by either the Gentiles or the Jews. Her Greek father already has a wife and family, leaving Julia and her Hebrew mother second-class citizens. But when they are introduced to followers of the Way, they become part of that community of believers.

Abigail's brother, Jacob, now a young man, is attempting to discover his own place as a Christian. He is concerned that being more serious about his faith means trading away the exhilaration of his current profession as a caravan guard. Hired by Julia's father to protect the wealthy merchant's caravans on the secretive "Frankincense Trail"--undercover transport of this highly valuable commodity--Jacob also passes letters and messages between various communities of believers. He is alarmed to find out that Julia, hardly more than a girl, is also a messenger. Can their immediate mistrust be put aside to finally bring their hearts together?

Ratings and reviews

I thoroughly enjoyed this story! It represents so many things that happened after Jesus' life, death and resurrection. Reading this story has helped to reaffirm my faith in the Lord. The story itself still doesn't seem complete!

Christian Faith. I loved every bit of this book,couldn't put it down. I realized it's the sequel to 'hidden flame'. I now understand its the continuation of the bk 2 which at the time I had read it left me unsatisfied. But, this bk 3 is everything I hoped for. And oh yes...it was definitely the book of Acts being relived all over again, only, it seemed so real,so intense and as if I was part of the story!

This series was great. Really puts that time in history in prospective. How we all go thru the things they went thru as Christians. I want more! It shouldn't end here. A big ail and Lea never got to see each other again. And Jacob and Julia didn't get to have a wedding. Would recommend to anyone.
