A richly imagined work of historical fiction, Helena's Household: A Tale of Rome in the First Century transports readers into the vibrant and often turbulent world of ancient Rome during the early Christian era. The narrative chronicles the lives of those within a Roman household, weaving together the social hierarchies, domestic intrigues, and spiritual upheavals that defined daily life in the imperial city. With meticulous attention to historical detail, the story illustrates the collision between the established Roman world and the nascent Christian faith spreading through its streets and homes. The tone is both immersive and earnest, drawing readers into moral and spiritual questions that feel as urgent in the first century as they do today.
