Silver Medal Winner, Readers' Favorite Book Award Winner. Finalist, International Book Awards. In a richly-textured, controversial and provocative literary work, award-winning author Latayne C. Scott examines: What would it have been like to be a woman, a Gentile, and someone onto whom the Holy Breath moved - to produce what became the mysterious Epistle to the Hebrews in the Bible?
“This book changed me, deepened my love for The Breath, and swelled my appreciation for those who sacrificed so much to ensure people like me…could turn the parchment pages and read Truth for ourselves. I didn't want to leave this story and fear Latayne has spoiled me as a reader. That's how thoroughly it captivated my heart and rearranged my definition of elegant and life-altering storytelling.” Cynthia Ruchti, Golden Scroll-winning author of A Fragile Hope and Song of Silence.
“Wonderful writing, characterizations that are precise and vivid, excellent historical detail, fabulous prose marked by fresh metaphors and great rhythm, and the description of romantic feelings–so hard to write–rock my world. Beautiful, lyrical.” Rosslyn Elliot, Carol-Award-winning author.
“Scott writes with a literary sensibility. Those who wonder who wrote the book of Hebrews…and those intrigued by the person of Priscilla will be fascinated with this well-researched, sophisticated read.” Tracy Groot, award-winning author of Madman and The Sentinels of Andersonville.
“A fresh and engaging approach, which balances vivid imagination and extensive research.” Jeff Miller, editor of Priscilla Papers.
“If I've ever read more exquisite writing than A Conspiracy of Breath I don't know what it would be. Latayne's amazing novel inserts the reader into the ancient world of Rome and Corinth and Jerusalem and lets her feel what it would have been to live at the time of Paul and Timothy, Aquilla and Priscilla, and Latayne's unforgettable character, Cordelia–as an outlaw believer in the Name. The revelation of the book of Hebrews as received by Priscilla is profound, such as I've never experienced it before. This story completely captures the reader. Truly, truly unforgettable.” Sharon K. Souza, author of The Color of Sorrow Isn't Blue and What We Don't Know.
