The Good Brother (Coming Together: By the Book Book 1)

In the second book of Samuel, the tragedies of the children of King David unfold. Tamar is raped by her brother Amnon, and the text abandons her shortly thereafter, saying she "lived in her brother Absalom's house, a desolate woman." "The Good Brother" imagines Tamar, Amnon, and Absalom in a modern-day setting, and tells the story of Tamar's halting, stunted attempts at recovery after Amnon's attack, including her troubled and sexually charged relationship with Absalom.
