Christian Historical | Christian Biblical Fiction

In the heart of ancient Persia, the empire’s Jewish citizens face an ominous edict that threatens their very existence. Roxannah, the daughter of an impoverished Persian lord, is devastated by the news, but feels helpless to come to the aid of her Jewish friends. Desperate to support her family, Roxannah approaches the palace physician, Adin—the man whose kind eyes still haunt her—and seeks his help to find employment in Queen Esther’s kitchens.

 

In the opulent palace of Susa, Roxannah tries to survive the spiteful ploys of the other cooks as she ascends through the ranks. Her loyalty earns her the trust and friendship of Queen Esther, who is navigating treacherous palace politics with wisdom and grace. When Roxannah and Adin uncover a sinister plot against Amestris, the king's most powerful wife and Esther's archenemy, they find themselves tasked with the impossible job of discovering the culprit. As secrets unravel and alliances are tested, the fate of Esther's reign hangs in the balance.

 

Be swept away to ancient times in this captivating story of courage, sacrifice, and the unexpected bonds that form in the face of adversity.
