Hadassah

A gripping action/adventure full of political intrigue and suspense, with a brand-new perspective on a historical figure you may think you already know!   Both a palace thriller and a Jewish woman's memoir, Hadassah brings the age-old story of Esther to life. This historically accurate novel layered with fresh insights provides a fascinating twist on a pivotal time in religious history, and readers will find it bursting with page-turning drama.   During in-depth research on the life of Esther and its setting in ancient Persia--contemporary Iraq and Iran--Tenney discovered a compelling, heart-stopping tale lying at its core. He uses here his skilled storytelling gifts to capture the power and beauty of the peasant girl who became queen.

Best-selling author and inspirational speaker, Tommy Tenney teams up with Mark Andrew Olsen to deliver a mesmerizing tale of historical fiction. Favorably compared to Anita Diamant's The Red Tent for its unexpected plot twists, Hadassah is the fictional account of the Bible's Esther, the Jewish peasant girl who became queen of Persia.

This riveting sequel to the best-selling Hadassah: One Night with the King continues the story of the Bible's Queen Esther. When the king is murdered, Esther struggles to understand God's role for her and the people of ancient Persia. And in a parallel story set in the Middle East, the Israeli prime minister's wife must delve into the past to fight terrorism in the present.
