Author Shaul Ezer has woven a gripping novel out of an obscure and enigmatic biblical reference in the Old Testament narrative of the Exodus. Moses, leader of the Hebrew people in exile, has successfully brought his people out of slavery. But Moses must stay ahead of the Pharaoh's forces who are seeking to recapture the Hebrews. He finds a surprising opportunity when he meets the Nubian Viceroy who seeks to liberate the Nubian people from Egyptian rule. What follows is an enchanting love story between the embattled Hebrew leader and Havilya, the exotic Nubian princess, daughter of the Viceroy, who captures his heart in the middle of political intrigue among Egyptians, Nubians and Hebrews in the time of the Pharaoh Ramses II.
