A Certain Mercy

＂Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.＂

Those stones are meant for Zara-the woman dragged through the dusty streets of first-century Jerusalem by the religious leaders- a women condemned to die for adultery.

Trapped in a loveless marriage to Joram, a ruthless gambler, Zara finds herself drawn to the one man she can never have-Auriga Maximus, the famed charioteer enslaved by her husband. What begins as stolen glances ignites into forbidden passion-and when their secret is exposed, Zara faces death by stoning.

But in her darkest moment, standing before an angry mob in the Temple courts, a Galilean teacher named Yeshua offers her something she never expected: mercy.

Spared from execution but shattered by shame, Zara must navigate a treacherous world of political intrigue, religious persecution, and her own haunting past.

From the opulent danger of Herod’s court to the quiet refuge of Bethany, from the shadow of the Cross to the glory of the Resurrection, A Certain Mercy weaves a powerful story of forbidden love, devastating betrayal, and the transforming grace of Christ.

Perfect for fans of Biblical Fiction like the works of Francine Rivers, Tessa Afshar, and Angela Hunt, A Certain Mercy invites you to walk the ancient streets, feel the dust rise beneath your feet, and witness a mercy as alive today as it was 2,000 years ago.
