The story of Saul of Tarsus (Saint Paul), a simple Pharisee. He wasn't important, but was filled with ambition. The perfect person to be sent as a bounty hunter, as a zealous messenger who followed orders, whose hand didn't tremble when his life suffered a great change. This ambitious historical novel offers a rigorous, detailed account of the events of St Paul's life in the first century A.D: his struggle to preach the new ideas about the Messiah, the rites of the Eucharist, his intrepid evangelical travels… This passionate novel gives a vision of a man of flesh and blood who became the lion of God.
