Unveiled Tamar’s Story by Roseanna M. White
Unveiled: Tamar’s Story is book one in the Mysteries & Wonders of the Bible fiction series.
Each year, head weaver Tamar supervises a team of young women to craft the temple veil—a beautiful, sacred curtain that separates the Holy Place from the Holy of Holies in the tabernacle in Jerusalem. Tamar takes great care to ensure that the curtain meets the exact specifications of Jewish law. But on one momentous Friday, the earth shakes, the skies turn black, and the unthinkable occurs. The massive temple veil rips in two!
The temple priests are quick to blame Tamar and her weavers for what has occurred. With both her life and livelihood at stake, Tamar sets out to discover what happened to the veil. She will find unexpected help from a Roman centurion and his wife, but can she trust someone who works for Caesar? And how is the torn veil linked to the execution of a mysterious rabbi named Jesus?
