Descriere

Description What If? What if you were studying for your Ph. D. in archaeology and somehow got trapped in first-century Jerusalem after a controversial physics experiment went horribly wrong? What if you knew from your history books that a kind and decent man was going to be murdered by the powers-that-be, all because of stupid politics? What if you could prevent the murder, but you knew it might endanger the person you loved most in the world? It's A. D. 57 and Rivka Meyers desperately wants to go home, but her husband Ari is a physicist, and he says they're stuck in the first century. He also says that the laws of physics say Rivka can't change history. Rivka knows he's wrong, and she's going to prove it-by saving James the brother of Jesus from being murdered by the evil high priest.
