Synopsis

John, the apostle, seemed to have some advantages the other eleven did not. For one, he was probably Jesus' cousin-in the flesh, that is. His mother, Salome, was probably the same Salome identified as Mary's sister. Second, John seemed to have an inroad into the Jewish high priests' compound. Did he know someone? In The Light, John's advantage is his friendship with High Priest Caiaphas's younger son, Amos Annas, the narrator of this novel. Amos, a Sadducee in good standing, spends a lifetime puzzling over events his brain says cannot be what they appear, while his best friend and his eyes say something quite different.

A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Melissa Freeman had taught college freshman composition for many years when she started wondering if she could write, not just talk about writing. That question initiated a project the ended with The Light, a novel about Jesus Christ and how he appeared to those who hounded him to the cross, the family of the high priest. Why, when seeing signs and wonders at every turn, could they not accept Jesus as Messiah? Could they be like many people today?

In addition to writing The Light, Freeman has worked as a freelance writer, a newspaper reporter, and a history writer for Arcadia Publishing. Completing The Light is the realization of a twenty-year dream.
