According to the book description of A Cry in the Wilderness, “John the Baptist:
desert madman or prophet of God? John is charismatic and controversial. A rugged looking Nazarite, his hair and beard have
never been cut and he wears a goat hair tunic. He speaks with authority. His dais is a rocky knoll. Annas, the dethroned Chief
Priest knows a secret from John's past. How and to whom he preaches and baptizes till his death at Macchaerus, Herod's
stronghold in the desert comes with many surprises.”
