A New York Times Bestselling AuthorA CBA Bestselling AuthorThe Silent Years (Book 3)Born in the small village of Modein, made famous by the warrior Maccabees, Salome Alexandra harbors no grand dreams for her future. She pales in comparison to her beautiful older sister, and girls are not valued for their intellectual ability. But when her father and sister are killed, John Hyrcanus, a distant relative, invites Salome and her mother to live with his family in Jerusalem, where her thirst for knowledge is noticed and indulged. And though Salome spends much of her life as a pawn of powerful men, she learns that a woman committed to HaShem can change the world.
"After her father and sister are killed, Salome and her mother move to Jerusalem. When a relative betroths Salome to a pagan prince half her age, she questions God's plan. When she finds herself crowned queen of Judea, she learns that a woman committed to God can change the world!"--Provided by publisher.
