After two years of imprisonment, Paul is finally sailing the Great Sea to stand before Caesar and appeal the wrongful charges laid against him by vengeful Judaisers. Even at this late time of year, and with a change of vessels halfway, he should reach the western shores of Italia within a matter of weeks. Little does anyone suspect that the weeks will turn to months.
 
An enforced sojourn on Crete creates unexpected opportunities for the gospel, but their time there is all too short. The Alexandrian grain ship will reap a generous bounty if it can race the calendar to supply Rome’s demand for wheat past the close of sailing season. The prisoners it carries are equally Caesar’s cargo. Fateful decisions are made.

Trapped with hundreds of despairing others on a leaking ship in ever-increasing peril, Paul, Loukanos, and a handful of new converts, find their trust tested to the utmost as the grim days pass. Utter disaster looms – yet hadn’t Lord Jeshua had long ago promised that Paul must witness before Caesar?

How the Lord will save them, and what will happen next, no-one could foresee.
