Wolf, who retold the biblical stories of Rahab in The Scarlet Cord and Esther in The Reluctant Queen, now re-examines the life of Mary Magdalene. Here, readers see not the harsh prostitute of biblical lore but a much more complex Mary Magdalene; a kind, intelligent woman sold into a marriage she does not want. Wolf takes us through Mary's story to her first life-changing meeting with Jesus. VERDICT As Tosca Lee did with Judas in Iscariot, the author offers a more sympathetic portrait of a larger-than-life New Testament figure, making her more human, more innocent, more a victim of circumstance. A sure bet for fans of Jill Eileen Smith's "Wives of the Patriarch" series.
