Product Description

▼▲

When the new provincial governor arrives in Corinth, the esteemed chief magistrate Narkis Ligus is delighted. He sees a golden opportunity in the governor's presence--a chance to unite their households through the marriage of one of his beautiful unwed daughters to the governor's firstborn son. Such an advantageous union would surely bring divine blessings by the gods, propelling him to greater power and fortune.
Yet complications quickly arise in Narkis's own family. Mariana, his stepdaughter, holds steadfast faith in Yeshua, rendering her hesitant to marry a man devoted to the Roman gods, despite Narkis's urging. On the other hand, Prima, his daughter by birth, yearns for a life of wealth and status and is willing to go to great lengths to secure a marriage that fulfills her desires --even if it means betraying Mariana to do it.
