A masterful retelling of Tamar’s story of redemption, faith, healing, and justice

“As an author of biblical fiction, I know the amount of research and work that goes into crafting a story like this. Miriam Feinberg Vamosh and Eva Marie Everson comprise the perfect team.”
 
—Jerry B. Jenkins, The Chosen series

Ravaged by one brother, silenced and betrayed by another, and abandoned by her father, Tamar—once beloved daughter of the king of Israel, and healer of the court—suddenly finds herself in exile, fleeing for her life. But the story continues where the scriptures end: a dangerous journey and tenacious pursuit of her true identity and calling brings her full circle, to her rightful place in the kingdom.

The audiobook version of Ahoti: A Story of Tamar is narrated by Yasmine Al-Bustami (Ramah, from “The Chosen”)–available now!

“In Ahoti: A Story of Tamar, Miriam Feinberg Vamosh and Eva Marie Everson create a gripping story of Tamar, King David’s daughter who was raped by her half-brother Amnon. The narrative stays true to the sparse details of the biblical story, and fills in the gaps by adding plausible details to the plot and realistic portrayals of the characters in the story. Today’s readers will relate to the loneliness and shame Tamar experiences because of the actions and inactions of her father, brother, and half-brother. At the same time modern readers will appreciate the support the women in the story give to Tamar. Their concern makes possible the gift of transformation Tamar experiences as the story ends.”
–JOAN E. COOK, S.C., Ph.D., author of Hannah’s Desire, God’s Design: Early Interpretations of the Story of Hannah

Ahōti, a Story of Tamar, is a beautifully written novel that goes beyond Tamar’s sad ending in Scripture to a vision of hope and redemption, a story that brings Tamar full circle to healing and her rightful place in the kingdom.”
