The Arimathea Protocol

At a time when the world showed signs of crumbling, it was intention that was the enemy of the chaos...

The world remembers the silent years as peace. History remembers them as the calm before the storm. In 4 BC, a paranoid Edomite puppet king sits on a fragile throne, his grip on Judea slipping. When a massive, dust-shrouded moving city of a thousand Parthian warhorses appear outside the Damascus Gate, Rome holds its breath. But these warriors have not come for a siege-a mysterious contingent of the wise and wealthy are demanding a single, explosive artifact: the birth record of the new king. Swept up in the gears of competing empires, a young carpenter and his extraordinary family must vanish into the shadows of history, and wait.
