Jezebel was born into the world howling. She intends to leave it the same way. When Jezebel learns she cant be a king like her father simply because shes a girl, she vows never to become someones decorative wife, nameless and lost to history. At fifteen shes married off, despite her protests, to Prince Ahab of Israel. There, she does what she must to gain power and remake the dry and distant kingdom in the image of her beloved, prosperous seaside homeland of Tyre, beginning by building temples to the gods she grew up worshipping. As her initiatives usher in an era of prosperity for Israel, her new subjects love her, and her name rings through the land. Then Elijah, the prophet of Yahweh and her former lover, begins to speak out against her. Bitter at having been abandoned by Jezebel, he lashes out, calling her a slut. Harlot. Witch. And the people, revering their prophets message, turn on her. As ancient powers and faiths are pitted against each other, bloodshed descends on Israel and Jezebel faces the fall of her legacy. Determined despite the odds to make Israel a great nation, she must decide how far shes willing to go to protect her family, her throne her name. A stunning revision of a notorious queens story, Jezebel is a thrilling lyrical debut about a fierce woman who refuses to be forgotten.
