Guardian of the Flame transports readers back to one of the Seven
Wonders of the Ancient World, where characters struggle to find
meaning in a pagan society and are confronted by the one true God
and His message of redemption.
The year is 48 BC. Sophia, a woman hurt by past loss, guards the
famous lighthouse of Alexandria, Egypt, in order to hide herself away
from a world she deems cruel and unloving. But there is no escape.
Political turmoil swells as Roman general Julius Caesar and his legion
storm the city, and Cleopatra, Greek queen of Egypt, fights to retain
her country against both Caesar and bloodthirsty rivals within her
own household. Sophia is caught in the middle between a loyalty to
Cleopatra and her maddening interest in Bellus, the Roman soldier
whom Caesar has instructed to overtake the lighthouse.
