Three compelling stories about how a person can save their soul in circumstances that seem, at first glance, utterly fatal. The heroes of these three short novellas—ranging from a Greek thief to a Roman emperor to an officer of Napoleon’s Young Guard—lived in different eras, and only one thing unites them: a hard-won understanding that a person is needed by God entirely, without remainder, and that there is no better path to true freedom than to give oneself into the hands of the Lord.
The book is aimed at a broad audience and first of all at a young reader.
