Description

A multi-generational biblical saga of captivity, romance, faith, and redemption, set against the Judean exile in Babylon. Everything changes for Sarah the day Nebuchadnezzar s army storms Jerusalem. In an instant, her peaceful life on the farm is ripped away: her city sacked, her temple desecrated, her people enslaved. Marched across unforgiving desert sands to Babylon, Sarah and the remaining Judean people must find a way to keep their faith alive in a new and unforgiving home. Displaced within an empire of strange gods and unimaginable wealth, Sarah and her descendants bear witness to palace intrigue, betrayal, brutal sacrifice, regicide, and a new war brewing in the east. Through every trial, the Hebrew people attempt to preserve their religion. Uri, Sarah s son, transcribes incredible stories of prophets and visions, Creation and Exodus–stories that establish the central tenets of the Hebrew faith.
