The name Jezebel has long been associated with promiscuous women and false prophets. In the Bible, and here, Jezebel, the daughter of the King of Tyre, is married off as a political maneuver to King Ahab, and she converts him from Judaism to paganism. But the Prophet Elijah challenges the woman and her Phoenician gods. Seeking a miracle, Ahab's people vow allegiance to Elijah's God, inciting Jezebel to revenge. Garrett's welcome follow-up to Desired: The Untold Story of Samson and Delilah offers a captivating portrait of a more human and complex woman. VERDICT This compelling and suspenseful revisionist character study makes an excellent choice for aficionados of Francine Rivers.
