An opulent, riveting, and suspenseful continuation of the
thrilling historical novel The Midwife of Venice set in
medieval Constantinople. The Imperial Harem, Constantinople, 1579. Hannah and Isaac Levi, Venetians in exile, have begun a new
life in Constantinople. Isaac runs a newly established
business in the growing silk trade, while Hannah, the best
midwife in the city, plies her trade within the opulent
palace of Sultan Murat III, tending to the thousand women in
his lively and infamous harem. But one night, when Hannah is unexpectedly summoned to the
palace, she's confronted with Zofia, a poor Jewish peasant
girl who has been abducted and sold into the sultan's harem.
The sultan favors her as his next conquest and wants her to
produce his heir, but the girl just wants to return home to
the only life she has ever known. Will Hannah risk her life
and livelihood to protect this young girl, or will she
prioritize her high esteem in the eye of the sultan? Filled with adventure, lavish detail, and peopled with
unforgettable characters, The Harem Midwife showcases
Roberta Rich as a beloved and talented writer.
