About the Book

"Sensitively written with beautiful but not overdone prose, complex characters, and a really satisfying take on a "familiar" story. If you're a fan of biblical, Paleolithic, or ancient fiction, this is one you shouldn't miss." --Libbie Hawker, best-selling author of Tidewater and Mercer Girls. Cain's wife: no longer the nameless biblical character lost in the early pages of Genesis, but a complex woman of the ancient world whose life journey is not so different from our own. Akliah is one of the daughters of Adam and Eve, born after their exile from the Garden of Eden. Steeped in worship of the mysterious Creator God, Akliah increasingly lives at crosshairs between devotion to that deity and the entrancing pull of her own desires. When she is abducted to the barren wastelands of Nod as the de-facto mate of her murderous brother, Cain, Akliah struggles to survive the mental torment of her mistakes and the haunting presence of the captivating fallen angel Cain loves. Finally enslaved in the black city Cain builds to honor God's high enemy, Akliah learns to muster every wile and abandoned childhood belief to come to an honest understanding of who she is. Strengthened by devotion to her son and the integrity of the man she loves, this daughter of Adam must finally make a perilous choice between good and evil, or lose her soul in the mires of her own duplicity.
