Inspired by John S. Knox's debut novella, The Letter of Alon (2020), Treasures in Time offers Christian fiction readers another provocative, action-packed story starring history professor William Berrit, whose life was inexorably transformed after uncovering a venerated journal written by a distant ancestor from the first century of Christianity, recounting how their faith in God led the Berrit family through numerous hardships and conflicts and helped them stay on the sacred path of peace and true faithfulness. With each soul-stirring chapter in Treasures in Time, readers learn more about how William's ancestor Naamah and her adopted parents, Gaius and Aelia, survived the perils of a power-hungry patriarch, blood-thirsty barbarians, and cruel Roman tyrants threatening to destroy their family--all providing background for William's own thrilling contemporary path through the darkness enveloping him and his new romantic interest, Emma Valentini--the beautiful and brilliant Italian director of antiquities--as they find themselves in the middle of an exciting yet dangerous treasure hunt promising great riches and fortune, all because of Alon's legacy. More than just a thrilling tale of adventure and love, Treasures in Time offers readers an authentic and accurate glimpse into the socio-historical record of the ancient Roman Empire.
