She has chosen him freely, after the long work of truth, restraint, repentance, and mercy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the child growing within her cannot remain hidden in the hills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShiloh must know.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer father must know.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd Abishua, son of Neriah, must return to the house of the woman he once took and stand beneath the judgment of those who loved her first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor Shua, the road to Shiloh is a road into truth. He cannot undo the vineyard. He cannot repay the dance, the white linen, the mother's hands, the father's peace, or the life Mahlah lost. All he can do is stand before her family without excuse and bear what righteousness requires.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor Mahlah, the road home is no less costly. She returns not as the girl who vanished from the festival, but as a woman changed by grief, survival, love, and choice. She must face the family that mourned her, the village that remembers the wound, and the hard mercy of telling the truth without surrendering the life now growing inside her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Shiloh reckons with what was done, a child is born who bears witness to what mercy can become. And when the road turns back toward Benjamin, Shua and Mahlah must decide what kind of household can be built in a land broken by violence, pride, and fear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Cost of Truth is the final volume of In Those Days There Was No King - a biblical historical novel of judgment and mercy, family and restoration, and the costly truth that wounds must be named before they can be healed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kenny R.
