Rahab's Story

The beautiful eldest daughter of a rug seller and a secret believer in her late mother's religion of Judaism, Rahab is banished by her spiteful stepmother to the streets of Jericho where she is forced to sell her body to survive, until two Jewish spies give her the chance to embrace her religion and rise above the mire.

They were women of conviction and courage, whose stories inspire the faithful to this day. Here is Signet's second installment of Women of the Bible, a compelling new series for fans of historical romance and fiction.

Accused of witchery, Rahab is banished to certain death in Jericho. Now the girl once known as Beautiful Rahab must join the ranks of the city's prostitutes. She keeps her faith in God, but when Jewish spies appear, begging her to hide them, she must decide: stay safe and deny them-or help her fellow believers and transform herself from harlot to heroine.
