I'm a Norwegian author, and I carried this novel for a long time before I dared to write it down—a work of historical fiction built on one of the Bible's most dramatic stories: Joseph, in the Old Testament. It has been warmly received here in Norway, and the early reviews are good. My hope now is simple: that you will help me carry this story to the world's English-speaking readers.
I want to be open with you, the reader, about this: the writing is sensual rather than explicit, and there are some scenes of action and violence. But at heart this is drama, romance, and intrigue: conspiracies around Pharaoh's throne, the charged bond between Potiphar and his wife Zuleika, and the rivalry among twelve brothers over their father's favourite son.
