From Library Journal
Shott (Abigail, Herald, 1996) retells the biblical story of Bathsheba in this thoughtful interpretation of her life. Bathsheba is unhappily married to a soldier when King David happens to see her bathing. Taking her as his mistress, David rids himself of her husband by having the man sent to death in battle. Bathsheba begins to believe that every disaster occurring in their lives is the direct result of her adultery. It is only when she accepts the love of God that Bathsheba is able to forgive herself and become happy in her marriage. The portrait of Bathsheba is both insightful and perceptive. Shott continues to render biblical figures human enough to provide guidance to modern readers. A solid historical novel.
