In the shadow of Emperor Diocletian's anti-Christian edicts, Demitria goes upriver with her brother Theseus, to obtain provisions for fellow believers in the port city of Myra. When Theseus is injured in a diving accident, all seems lost, until a stranger named Nikolas appears and offers help. Demi is drawn to Nikolas and longs to trust in his belief that freedom can be found in forgiveness. Then one terrifying night, everything changes as the Roman Empire's fury rains down. Demi has no other choice but to decide if she has the courage to do what she once failed to... and if the faith she calls her own is sure enough to carry her.-- ER -
