The Cats of Rekem, chosen by Indie Reader as a “Best of 2015,” opens in the storied city of Petra (Rekem), the great Nabataean capital that vanished into obscurity before the fall of the Roman Empire. Francisco spins a tale of an alliance between Petran humans and cats that mingles with the lives of both Jesus of Nazareth and the Apostle Paul.
25 years have passed in Rekem since Yeshua’s rescue (in A Cat Out of Egypt) by Zaidan, a powerful caravan master, and Tikos, an Egyptian priestess with a temple cat from Bubastis. Cats gifted with human communication have multiplied among the people of Rekem, establishing themselves as companions to their chosen humans.
Under pressure by Imperial Rome, Israel’s Herod Antipas, and the conflicting religions of their age, Rekem struggles to hold its own. Zaidan, Tikos, and their children worship Yeshua’s One God and cherish ties with the risen Yeshua, but Petra’s King Aretas is growing increasingly hostile to the worship of non-Nabataean gods. Into this tinderbox stumbles a bemused Paul, fresh from his Damascus Road vision, and sets Rekem ablaze.
