About this listen

Recently widowed, Rivkah refuses to submit to the Torah law compelling her to marry her husband's brother and instead flees Kedesh, hoping to use her talents as a scribe to support herself. Without the protections of her father, Kedesh's head priest, and the safety of the city of refuge, Rivkah soon discovers that the cost of recklessness is her own freedom.

Malakhi has secretly loved Rivkah for years, but he never imagined his older brother's death would mean wedding her himself. After her disappearance, he throws himself into the ongoing fight against the Canaanites instead of dwelling on all he has lost. But with impending war looming over Israel, Rivkah's father comes to Malakhi with an impossible request.

As the enemies that Rivkah and Malakhi face from without and within Israel grow more threatening each day, is it too late for the restoration their wounded souls seek?

The storyline is very good and hold your attention well. The only criticism I have would be. I sometimes struggled with the narrator to keep up with each character because she didn’t change her voice a lot for each character. But have voice and storytelling is very good.

I love a biblical fiction story, and this was done really well

I felt that the characters lacked some of the depth of Cossette's previous stories. The male side of the story was unconvincing. It felt more like what a woman would wish a man to think, not how he really would. The setting and historical details were, as usual, well researched and realistic. The world the characters lived in was vivid and interesting. Whilst it is not possible to exactly re-create history, this setting was plausible and felt real.

Fascinating historical setting but..

I love this story! The heart of God and the foreshadows of Jesus are so carefully woven into the character development and aspects of the plot. Knowledge of Jewish custom and historical context is impressive. I really appreciate the family I am getting to know in each story I read and love making the connections between the stories.
