After sending his army to besiege another king's capital, King David forces himself on Bathsheba, a loyal soldier's wife. When her resulting pregnancy forces the king to murder her husband and add her to his harem, Bathsheba struggles to protect her son while dealing with the effects of a dark prophecy and deadly curse on the king's household.

Combining historical facts with detailed fiction, Angela Hunt paints a realistic portrait of the beautiful woman who struggled to survive the dire results of divine judgment on a king with a divided heart.

Well worth reading.

Excellent read. Very enjoyable in depth novel depicting the story of Bathsheba, the beloved queen of King David.

Angela Hunt has done it again with her talented skill in her added dramatized writing about characters of the the men and women of the Bible, during the time of the rule of kings, while keeping it real with its truths.

Beautifully told!

I loved this book! God is awesome and presence lights up this wonderfully told story!

Outstanding in every way!!

From the writing by the Author to the reading by the narrators, this book is outstanding! Absolutely flawless. I was lost in the story!! I felt not only like I was actually there watching all that happened but recognized my sinfulness in the greed, jealousy and selfishness of some of the characters. Its so easy to look back and say "I would never have..." But this book makes it clear that we are all sinful and in need of a loving God and more than that, to seek and obey Him!! Listen to this book and enjoy all it has to teach you about yourself. I feel as if I personally met Bathsheba. Kudos to the author.

Amazing Insight

such insight into this Queen her life , most of all her love for God.

Wonderful!!!

I truly enjoyed this telling of the life of Bathsheba. From a young vibrant lady, a young wife, a king’s wife, a mother and so very much more.
This is a great book you don’t want to miss out on.

loved it!

Loved the narrator. Made me keep wanting to listen to more and not stop. second book with this narrator and author and I am hooked

Decent story

I really appreciated the approach to the initial situation, and the open discussion of David’s flaws. There were some plot holes later in the story, and quite a few places where the pacing was off, but overall a decent read. The narrators were calm but engaging.

Loved story & narrator!

We know the story well, but bringing it to life was delightful. Enjoyed it so much and the narrator did such an awesome job.

Deeply satisfying

I have listened to many audiobooks, mostly in the genre of historical fiction, often revealing the untold stories of powerful women throughout History. This telling of the story of Bathsheba was deeply satisfying because it developed her character and personality, as well as describing the era and circumstances in which she lived in an entirely believable way, inspiring my compassion and imagination. The story focused on Bathsheba, her family, King David and kept to the historical facts. There were perhaps a few too many characters which complicated the story, but it never lost my interest!

Really really good!

I really really enjoyed this. It really opened up that Bible era to me so much more and better. I really enjoyed Nathan. And her sweet and honest spirit.
