All Roads Lead to Zion
Edmunds’ gripping novel interprets the mystery and addresses the question of why the followers of Jesus didn’t do more to prevent his crucifixion.
Jerusalem was a hub-bub of activity during the time, jammed with thousands of pilgrims there to celebrate the Passover. Jesus and his disciples were just a small number of people in the crowd.
A veteran Roman officer, Gaius Julius Comminus, is assigned to maintain order and keep the peace in Judea. He struggles to fulfil his duty against a madman who haunts the roads of Zion bent on the murder and plunder of Roman citizens. Complicating his assignment is a young rabbi from Nazareth, Jesus, provoking rebellion among the citizens. Is the rabbi the Messiah, a son of David, prophesied to restore Israel? Through the eyes of a Roman officer, this book brings to life the mood of the times and the struggle a man faced as he took part in the most horrifying event in history—the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
Read what people are saying about All Roads Lead to Zion:
“Who better to write the story of an ancient police officer than a contemporary one? In All Roads Lead to Zion, retired police Lt. Wm Edmunds uses his skills of today to research and write the gripping tale of Gaius Julius Cominus, the Roman Centurion who obeyed the order to crucify Jesus the Christ. March the streets of Jerusalem, taste the dust, see the agony, suffer with a man who lived his life in the military and was forced by duty to take part in the most cataclysmic event in history. Edmunds will take you there, and like Gaius, you’ll never be the same afterward.” --Lauraine Snelling, Best selling author of The Red River Series and Daughters of Blessing, Breaking Free.
