About this listen
Purple. The foundation of an influential trade in a Roman world dominated by men. One woman rises up to take the reins of success in an incredible journey of courage, grit, and friendship. And along the way, she changes the world. But before she was Lydia, the seller of purple, she was simply a merchant's daughter who loved three things: her father, her ancestral home, and making dye. Then unbearable betrayal robs her of nearly everything. With only her father's secret formulas left, Lydia flees to Philippi and struggles to establish her business on her own. Determination and serendipitous acquaintances - along with her father's precious dye - help her become one of the city's preeminent merchants. But fear lingers in every shadow until Lydia meets the Apostle Paul and hears his message of hope, becoming his first European convert. Still, Lydia can't outrun her secrets forever, and when past and present collide, she must either stand firm and trust in her fledgling faith or succumb to the fear that has ruled her life.

Loved it.
Love all stories about dyeing and textile, specially when they are Biblical. I find Tessa's book to be absolutely interesting and touching.

Worth a Listen!!!
Ms. Afshar is a talented writer seamlessly weaving a story based on a real biblical character.
Such writing requires an extraordinary amount of research.
Her vocabulary, vivid descriptions, and balance of indirect description vs. incorporated dialogue is amazing.
I am a writer myself and rarely leave any comments for writers. I wanted to provide my encouragement to Ms. Afshar to keep up the good work! This story is worth a listen!
