description: If the path of obedience is the path of wisdom it is one not well worn by my feet. I am Adira daughter of the caravan daughter of the wind and daughter of the famed merchant Zakiti. That I am his daughter not his son is a secret between my father and myself.Secretly raised as a boy in her father's caravan and schooled in languages and the fine art of negotiation Adira rejects the looming changes of womanhood that threaten her nomadic life and independence. With the arrival of two mysterious Northmen rumored to be holy men Adira's world unravels. She loses everything she values most including the Angel who has awakened her desires. Caught between her culture and freedom and tormented by impossible love she abandons all she has known in a dangerous quest to follow the Angels. With only her beloved dog Nami at her side Adira must use all the skills she learned from her father to survive the perils of the desert Sodom and her own heart.Angels at the Gate is a story of adventure and the power of love a compelling saga based on historical research about the ancient biblical world of Abraham Sodom and Gomorrah and the woman who became a pillar of salt. Like T.K. Thorne's previous award-winning novel Noah's Wife this book brings to life early history in a new light and gives it relevance in the most ancient of ways - an enticing story.ARCs available now!Publicity Media Bloggers etc. please contact:Jane Wesman Public Relations Inc.322 Eighth AvenueSuite 1702New York NY 10001Contact:Jane Wesman (jane@wesmanpr.com)Felicia Sinusas (felicia@wesmanpr.com)212 620-4080fax 212 620-0370www.wesmanpr.com&quot;
