About this listen

Young Magdalen and Jesus, brimming with youthful charm and arrogance, find each other and fall in love, forging a bond that is stronger than death. Their pleasure is overshadowed by a brilliant but unbalanced druid who knows a perilous secret about Maeve's past. The prequel to The Passion of Mary Magdalen.

Entire production was amazing. The writing has all the depths of great historical fiction yet with a distinctly modern edge; the heroine is talking to us contemporary readers. The narrator is brilliant in delivery. A superb actress.

Both writer and narrator a standout!!!
