Obadyah. Sacrificed to pay his father's debt, forced into the life every Hebrew boy feared: slave to the king and¿a eunuch.

Chosen to be Athena, goddess of wisdom. As a member of Jezebel's prized harem, she is the envy of every Sidonian. She enjoys great privilege, serving at the feet of Jezebel, with a single threat clouding her days. She must please the fickle princess if she is to live. Her love for Obadyah can never be discovered.Jezebel. Alluring, shrewd, and poised to rule, the daughter of the Phoenician king makes it her mission to destroy anyone and anything that stands between her and power. As Jezebel comes of age, her rage turns to Yahweh, His prophets, and His servants. Facedd with an evil far greater than any he could have imagined, Obadyah must stop Jezebel from destroying his people and their relationship with Yahweh, preserved in the precious scrolls and in the hearts of the prophets. Obadyah must save the Word of God. He must protect Zoë. He must accept the truth about himself. But how? Eliah. In the fulfillment of this impossible task, Yahweh brings Obadyah a helper: a little girl, gifted as a psalm-keeper. Can a little girl and two slaves save the Word of God-and themselves-from Jezebel's powerful hand?
