In a world full of DVD extras, behind-the-scenes commentary, and social media, people are used to getting the story behind the story. Readers want to understand not just what happened but why. Historian and author Paul L. Maier has created a compelling style of documentary fiction with a view to answering these questions. He uses what is historically known of Pilate's life and rise to power, adds in the known political climate of first-century Judea, and unveils the colourful, untold story that changed history for all time. He provides intriguing answers to questions such as: What really happened at that most famous of trials? Were the proceedings against Jesus legal? Did cowardice or necessity motivate Pilate's judgment? What became of this successful Roman politician after his verdict?
