""The plot and pacing are masterful, and there is enough sex,
betrayal, murder, and intrigue to keep the most skeptical readers
breathlessly turning pages. Wood skillfully envisions a society set
in biblical times, with people-trading, marrying and scheming in a
thriving coastal town at the center of ancient trade routes,
rendered in soft focus but with marvelous clarity and complexity.""
