Long fascinated by ancient history, T.L. Higley’s passion shines in her latest novel, Pompeii: City on Fire. Disguised as a boy and sold to a gladiator troupe, Ariella meets Cato, a disillusioned Roman. Under the shadow of Vesuvius they discover the truth about the man on the cross. Tracy shares, “I love giving readers a glimpse of what God has been doing throughout all of history, to call all people to Himself. I’ve found that believers in ancient cultures contended with the same issues we do today – trying to live as light in a dark world, trying to be part of their world for the sake of the kingdom and yet not destroyed by it.”
