Synopsis

In The Gospel According to Doubters and Traitors, a spiritual and psychological novel set in First Century India, Tyler Watson tells the story of an apostle of Jesus Christ arriving in Muziris, a bustling port of the spice trade.

The Apostle and his fellow missionaries must quickly learn the language and customs of their new home, as well as navigate thorny religious and political landscapes. They find early success among the poorest citizens of the city, but a vicious brothel keeper, working with a paranoid government, threatens to destroy the young church.

The Apostle is thrown into chaotic uncertainty when he encounters a figure from his past—a fellow follower of Jesus, who years earlier, abandoned the faith and fled to India.

For this onetime disciple, the Apostle is a disturbing reminder of that life he longs to forget.

These former companions struggle through suffering, persecution, and the unrelenting past, to discover belief and doubt and new visions of God.
