The book is set in ancient Babylon during the reign of King Belshazzar, and follows the story of a young Jewish woman named Esther who becomes a member of the king's court. Esther is taken captive by the Babylonians and brought to the city, where she catches the eye of Belshazzar and is appointed as one of his wives. As she navigates the treacherous world of the court, Esther becomes embroiled in a power struggle between the king and his advisors, and must use her wit and intelligence to survive.The novel is rich in historical detail and offers a vivid portrayal of life in ancient Babylon. It explores themes of power, loyalty, and betrayal, and provides a unique perspective on the biblical story of the Babylonian captivity.
