Jezebel: A Novel

Jezebel, a name that has echoed through the ages, yet her story remains untold. "Historical fiction at its finest," (Louisa Morgan) this propulsive novel is a stunning reimagining of the tale of a fierce princess from Tyre and her infamous legacy.

Born into the world howling, Jezebel vows to leave it the same way. Driven by her ambition and unwavering determination, she refuses to be confined by the limitations placed on her simply because she is a woman. When she is married off to Prince Ahab of Israel at the age of fifteen, despite her protests, Jezebel sets out to gain power and transform the dry and distant kingdom into a reflection of her beloved, prosperous homeland of Tyre.

Jezebel's initiatives usher in an era of prosperity for Israel, earning her the love and adoration of her new subjects. Her name rings through the land, a testament to her influence and vision. However, her success is met with opposition from Elijah, the prophet of Yahweh and her former lover, who bitterly lashes out, condemning her as a slut, harlot, and witch.

As ancient powers and faiths collide, bloodshed descends on Israel, and Jezebel faces the potential downfall of her legacy. Undeterred, she remains resolute in her determination to make Israel a great nation, even if it means going to extreme lengths to protect her family, her throne, and her name.

This stunning revision of a notorious queen's story is a thrilling, lyrical debut that explores the complexities of a fierce woman who refuses to be forgotten. Jezebel's journey, filled with passion, ambition, and the relentless pursuit of power, challenges the traditional narratives surrounding her and invites readers to delve into the depths of her remarkable life.
