Everyone knows Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, but before Jericho, there was Arad...
When Arisha flees Canaan, she finds herself in the Israelite camp. Under Miriam's care, the young woman begins to heal, but Israel's matriarch is close to death. She wants to be assured this abused and abandoned young woman will have a good life, and she entreats Zadok to marry her.
Zadok is the grandson of Bezalel, architect of the Tabernacle, and great-grandson of Hur, advisor to Moses. Selected by Aaron to shepherd the Tabernacle flock, he has a gentle spirit Miriam believes can help heal Arisha's heart.
The Canaanite king of Arad has heard about the mighty deeds of Israel's God, and fears he will be destroyed as Egypt was. When Arad goes on the offensive, Zadok will have to make a choice. This time a shepherd's heart cannot save Arisha.
This time, she needs a warrior.
