Fortunes of Death is a riveting read set in the first century. Eyerly deftly weaves vivid descriptions of the people, places, and customs of the Roman presence in Ephesus, with a murder mystery rooted in religious persecution. The sleuth, Sabina, shows intelligence and bravery as she works to find the murderer while dealing with the restrictions of a female practicing a forbidden faith. I really enjoyed learning more about the early Christian Church in such an entertaining read.

In Fortunes of Death, Liisa Eyerly takes readers are on a thrilling ride through a world we recognize from Scripture. (I especially appreciated the character summary and the vocabulary list at the front of the book.) Eyerly’s writing shines with rich, evocative prose and well-crafted characters, drawing us into a narrative that is as unpredictable as the lives it explores. Sabina’s journey is filled with intrigue and moral dilemmas, prompting us to weigh the true cost of power, the nature of choice, and the impact of faith. With each twist and turn, Eyerly deftly balances humor and tension, keeping us on the edge of our seats. This is a tale that resonates long after the last page is turned. A must-read for fans of historical fiction who crave depth alongside adventure.
