Thriller Arcane
With compelling storytelling coupled with years of exhaustive study, Evan Drake Howard has created a magisterial novel that asks enduring questions on the nature of love. In first-century Jerusalem, Judith finds herself caught in a web of romantic betrayal and intrigue. She must reconcile her faith with her conflicting feelings for two brothers. A letter written by a Galilean rabbi changes their lives forever. In modern-day Israel, amidst the war-torn countryside, Karim Musalaha, a young Palestinian, finds himself with similar struggle. Caught between his brother's relentless ambition for martyrdom and his powerful love for a woman he cannot have, his life seems an endless journey of despair. Until one day, he discovers a crumbling scroll still legible after two millennia. Karim reads a message that changes his life forever. But will the cost be worth his newfound knowledge?
