For all her eighty-six years, Miriam has found complete contentment in her relationship with El Shaddai, but when her brother Moses returns from exile proclaiming God's new name--Yahweh--troubling doubts plague her night and day. Respected as a midwife and for tending her aging parents, she is suddenly forced to submit to Moses and Aaron's leadership. And then Miriam, like the rest of Israel, endures the consequences of the first three plagues with the Egyptians--the bloody Nile, the frogs, the gnats/lice--without any hope or explanation of what is coming next. Miriam immerses readers into the amazing events that transpired in Miriam's life between the time she heard Yahweh's new name and when she led Israel's women in a victory dance across the Red Sea.

Mesu Andrews' first novel, Love Amid the Ashes (Revell, 2011), won the 2012 ECPA Book of the Year for a Debut Author. Her three subsequent novels, Love's Sacred Song, Love in a Broken Vessel, and The Shadow of Jezebel all released to great reader enthusiasm. Mesu lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband Roy.

"Andrews offers her unique brand of in-depth Bible knowledge and storytelling flair in this tale of Miriam, sister of the famous Moses and Israel´s prophetess during the slavery of Israelites in Egypt. Miriam´s strong faith comes into question when she begins to experience her gentle husband, El-Shaddai, as Yahweh, God of Moses, as well as plagues and death. Before the story ends with the Israelites`miraculous freedom after the final, horrible plague, Andrews offers readers a beautiful and nuanced picture of Miriam and other characters: Eleazer, Miriam´s beloved nephew and slave soldier; Taliah, his yound and headstrong wife; Hoshea, Eleazer`s richt-hand man, of gigantic faith; and even stubborn Pharaoh Ramesses himself. Andrew is gifted at bringing the past to life, and readers will thrill at God´s victory even as they struggle, as Miriam did, to understand God´s plan. This novel is biblical fiction at its finest."
