"Smart, strong, and a follower of the Jewish God, Lydia has nonetheless always quietly conformed to the expectations of the wealthy Roman society surrounding her. Even though married off at fifteen to a man she dislikes, she is determined to be a faithful wife. But when her husband is killed some years later, Lydia vows never to remarry andreturns to her father's house in Thyatira with her twelve-year-old daughter. There, a new life begins to emerge. As she is trained in the family dye business, Lydia's shrewd management quickly creates profit, prestige--and envy.
