COVER REVEAL: Land of Silence by Tessa Afshar









About the Book


Before Christ called her daughter . . .

Before she stole healing by touching the hem of his garment . . .

Elianna is a young girl crushed by guilt. After her only brother is killed while in her care, Elianna tries to earn forgiveness by working for her father’s textile trade and caring for her family. When another tragedy places Elianna in sole charge of the business, her talent for design brings enormous success, but never the absolution she longs for. As her world unravels, she breaks off her betrothal to the only man she will ever love. Then illness strikes, isolating Elianna from everyone, stripping everything she has left.

No physician can cure her. No end is in sight. Until she hears whispers of a man whose mere touch can heal. After so many years of suffering and disappointment, is it possible that one man could redeem the wounds of body . . . and soul?

Ane here's the cover... (drum roll)






I am very excited to read Tessa's next release, Land of Silence. Her last novel was all about the story of Ruth and Land of Silence tells us the story of Elianna, the woman with an issue of blood. I've always loved her part in Scripture so I'm really excited to get my hands on this one. And it's going to be in hardcover too. Yay!!
