I Was Called Barabbas (Barabbas, #1)
by
4.05 avg rating — 74 ratings

Reason: This book is set in modern times - someone cloning the DNA off the Shroud of Turin.
This list is for fiction set within the setting/time of the New Testament and with New Testament people as main characters.
Edit: Also removing:
Das Jesus-Video
Der Jesus-Deal
Same reason, these are not historical (New Testament era), Biblical fictions. These appear to be archaeological/conspiracy thrillers.
For this list books have to be in the setting/times/context of the NT Bible. Books like Da Vinci Code or other thrillers or a Medieval mystery about missing Saint Paul's relics or something like that would not apply.
