WHEN IT WAS DARK is a powerful novel about a plot to destroy Christianity.  The story follows the machinations of a wealthy Londoner, Constantine Schaube, who bribes a noted Biblical expert to plant a false inscription on an ancient tomb, which seems to refute the Resurrection of Jesus.  In the ensuing worldwide turmoil, crime, violence, and immorality increase, providing a frightening look into a world where Christianity is absent.
