**What is it like to risk your life for the truth?** A young Roman army captain in the third century is confronted by the brutalities endured by Christians. The solidity of their faith in the midst of persecution prompts Marcellus to convert, despite knowing it could cost him his life. Told through fictional characters, *Martyr of the Catacombs* will help the reader understand the history of the early church and the severe persecution it experienced.
