Kedeshah was an ancient word used in the in the Hebrew Bible referring to a sacred prostitute, which is Mary Magdalene. Carpenter refers to Jesus Christ.
Mary Magdalene doesn't mind her life as a Kedeshah; a high-class sex worker. But she yearns for something more. Through a charismatic yet substance abusive regular client by the name of Jesus of Nazareth, she believes the key to a new life lies in a partnership of theatrics with this lost soul.
Using hired help and skills learned from an alchemist doctor, Mary invents a Messiah of mystery, a savoir who can perform miracles, and more importantly; an emissary to tell the disillusioned people of Roman controlled Judea what they want to hear. All for a small price.
When jealous religious rivals, ex-lovers, concerned High Priests and bull-headed kings realize the growing influence of this remarkable one they call Jesus Christ, Mary battles the ballooning ego of Jesus of Nazareth and those who seek to have him disposed of. She must keep her masterpiece alive just long enough to take all she's earned and abscond to a quieter, simpler life.
The Kedeshah and the Carpenter is the story of Jesus Christ with dark and inventive twists, using actual quotes and events from the Bible that are skewered to show a much different telling than the one most people are familiar with.
