History knows her as a sinner, a prostitute saved from seven demons. But the truth is far more revolutionary.
Mary of Magdala is no penitent. She is a brilliant and wealthy merchant who commands a fishing empire on the Sea of Galilee. Her life is one of calculated control and commercial success, but a mysterious, debilitating illness brings her to the feet of the radical teacher, Jesus of Nazareth, as a last resort.
The healing he offers is more than she could have imagined, freeing not just her body but a mind of formidable power. But Jesus needs more than another follower. In Mary's sharp intellect and logistical genius, he finds an equal-a partner to organize and finance his burgeoning movement, and the only one capable of understanding his deepest, most dangerous teachings on consciousness and the divine spark within.
Her privileged position places her in direct conflict with the male disciples, particularly Peter, who sees her not as an ally but as a rival who complicates the simple message he believes is necessary for the masses. As Jesus's journey leads to its inevitable conclusion in Jerusalem, Mary becomes the keeper of a truth too complex for the institution that will be built in his name. She is the first witness to the resurrection, yet she is systematically silenced, her legacy rewritten, and her identity transformed from a leader into a repentant sinner to serve a new hierarchy.
Spanning decades from the shores of Galilee to the heart of Rome, The Apostle to the Apostles is an epic rei
magining of the greatest story ever told-this time, from the perspective of the woman who was deliberately written out of it. It is a story of faith and betrayal, of a spiritual revolution, and of the underground river of truth that flows, patient and persistent, beneath the foundations of history.
