The book tells the story of Esther, a Jewish queen who became the wife of King Ahasuerus of Persia. The story begins with the king's banquet and his request for Queen Vashti to appear before him. When she refuses, she is banished and a search is made for a new queen. Esther, a beautiful Jewish girl, is chosen and becomes the new queen. The plot thickens when Haman, the king's advisor, plots to kill all the Jews in the kingdom. Esther, with the help of her cousin Mordecai, devises a plan to save her people.
