Synopsis

Three siblings — Ross, Wendy, and Diccon Carsedale — are thrilled to spend their summer holiday at their aunts' home in Scotland. The children quickly befriend local girl Lettice and her cousin Malcolm, forming a merry band of adventurers.
 
Together they explore mysterious ruins, go on daring seaside escapades, and uncover long-buried secrets. But when the children's curiosity leads them to a forbidden wing of the house, they learn a painful family history. As summer progresses, the young friends must navigate pranks gone awry, dangerous rescues, and the complexities of growing up, all while savoring the beauty and wonder of the Scottish countryside.

    "How much longer do you think we'll have to wait?" Tilly Carpenter asked rather questioningly, with her fingers crossed and some degree of impatience.
    
    She had never been any good at waiting around for something to happen! But this was one thing that no one was able to speed up; it would simply happen when Brownie was ready, and not before… no matter what Tilly did in the poor attempt to hurry things along.
    
    "I'm not sure," Coral Johnson shrugged in answer. "But Dad thinks it will be soon. Maybe one or two more days?"
    
    "At least we're on spring break, so it doesn't really matter." Tilly sighed in exasperation. "We're going to be here at Saddlers Ranch as much as we can until then. Right, Lexie?"
    
    "Absolutely!" Lexie Howard nodded in avid agreement. "And afterwards too, don't forget."
    
    "Of course," Tilly seemed almost affronted by the suggestion that she might not have remembered. "How could I forget! Brownie's standing right in front of us, and she's grown so much that it looks like she really did swallow another horse!"
    
    "Mares always have protruding bellies when they're in foal." Coral explained, chuckling slightly.
    
    "Yes, I know. But not that much, surely?" Tilly stuttered. "She's huge!"

    On the rocky hill the young jerboas watched as the one they called the king hung on the cross, dying. Suddenly, the earth began to tremble, then rumble, then quake. Rocks split and tombs broke open. The dove said, "They will take Jesus's body and lay him in a tomb. The serpents think they've won a victory, but on the third day Jesus will rise, just as he said. The serpents don't realize that darkness has already been defeated and soon Jesus will appear—alive!"
    The Death and the Victory by bestselling author Marty Machowski follows the adventures of the animals who could have witnessed the events of the New Testament from Jesus's death through Revelation. Join jerboas at the cross, horses at Christ's empty tomb, leopards watching Jesus ascend to heaven, turtledoves at Pentecost, squirrels who follow Saul to Damascus, and many animals on the island of Patmos with John.
    The Death and the Victory is the fourth of four books in the Redemption Tales series for ages 8–12, retelling Bible narratives from the perspective of the animals who could have witnessed the events firsthand. Each story includes Bible study questions to acquaint kids with the "truth behind the tales" and offers a new point of view of God's overarching story of redemption found throughout his Word.
