“There is no crime to fit this sentence; there is no sentence to fit this crime.”
The words of the Roman Prefect Pontius Pilate echo across the centuries in Daniel Grace’s first novel In the Wake of Golgotha, a daring retelling of “the greatest story ever told.” As the specter of Pilate collides with a modern-day incarnation of Judas Iscariot in the shadows of a New York City basement, a profound religious mystery unfolds in a dark and dazzling literary thriller.
The book is a bit of a departure for Daniel Grace, the London-born, California-bred former owner of an internationally-acclaimed advertising agency, who now produces award-winning wines at his Family’s winery, Il Molino di Grace, in Panzano-in-Chianti, Italy, and who has come to believe that his creative pursuits—as a novelist, advertising executive, and vintner—are all of a piece.
He joins us on the podcast to discuss his Love of wine and literature, and his determination to share the stories to be found in the bones of a well-crafted Super Bowl commercial, in the bottle of an old world Classico or Super-Tuscan wine, or between the lines of his long-awaited debut novel.
