To Comfort A King

To Comfort A King

When Abishag leaves her home to fulfill the commission to comfort King David during his final months of life, she leaves behind a deaf sister, a small brother, and a father who is still grieving the death of his wife. Also left behind is Abishagâ€™s betrothed, Joseph, who has already waited many months to claim his bride. Now, he must wait until Israelâ€™s king no longer needs her. Torn from the comfort of her small village, Abishag is thrust into a world of unfamiliar customs, royal expectations, and palace intrigue. She is greeted suspiciously by the kingâ€™s concubines, warmly by Queen Bathsheba, and reluctantly by King David himself. Adonijah, the kingâ€™s son, is bitter over his fatherâ€™s choice of Solomon as Israelâ€™s next king. He determines to ruin Abishag to prevent her from being given as a prize to Solomon at their fatherâ€™s death. Suffering personal losses, as well as scorn from much of the royal court, Abishag begins to question Godâ€™s goodness in placing her in the kingâ€™s service. Can she find someone there who understands that one who comforts the king is in great need of comfort herself? Will Abishagâ€™s time with the king end in despair or joy?
