"The controversial woman with a past only one Man could forgive. A true love story that changed the face of history. 'I was Miryam of Magdala, seller of fine fabrics and wife of Yaakov the fisherman. With my husband and son, I held a place of honor among my countrymen until a company of rogue soldiers took everything from me. I might not be Roman, but I knew injustice when I saw it. And I had been most grievously wronged.' In an era when women are sequestered and silenced, Miryam of Magdala lives a contended life until her son's careless gesture evokes a hostile action that shatters her serenity. With no hope of justice, Miryam commits and unthinkable act...and descends into depths of darkness that threaten her life and her sanity. Even after Yeshua the Messiah dramatically restores her life, Miryam can neither forget nor forgive unresolved injustices. Prodded by a hunger for vengeance she will not deny, this woman of uncommon courage risks her life and her heart by drawing destiny into her own hands. Best-selling author Angela Hunt turns her talent for research and historical accuracy to the story of Mary Magdalene, one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented women in history. Enjoy this beautiful new edition with author's notes, book club discussion questions, and an extensive list of references."--Description from Amazon.com.

I loved this work of Biblical historical fiction. It was true to the narrative and had a great plot and colourful characters for the parts on which Scripture is silent. I also liked the Q and A at the end of the book where the author explains her research. Mary Magdalene was a blessed woman, being the first person to see the risen Christ.
