"THE HOUSE OF EVE is a luminous, moving read!

Their lives entwine in startling ways as they are faced with hard choices about their respective futures."—KATE QUINN, New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye
“A fully immersive, intricately crafted story inspired by the pages of history. In Pheby, Sadeqa Johnson has created a woman whose struggle to survive and to protect the ones she loves will have readers turning the pages as fast as their fingers can fly. Simply enthralling.”--Lisa Wingate, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Before We Were Yours and The Book of Lost Friends.
