Synopsis

“Since you have been dumped here like me, then you are likely different from the others and you might be willing to help me.”
“Help you do what?”
“Kill our husband.”

In the rolling hills of Kanaan lies the mysterious tale of Abyga’el, a fifteen-year-old girl whose sharp intellect and breathtaking beauty are overshadowed by her blinding passion to rescue children abused and abandoned by their law-abiding parents, like she once was. When a curious proposal ignites her soul’s desire to create a child sanctuary, she breaks cultural confines of the Eber Y’israelites and secretly arranges her own betrothal to Nabal, a suitor she knows nothing of.

Aby, as her friends call her, does this right before reuniting and falling in love with Dawit, the young, handsome, magnetic, and celebrated warrior-son of the nation. But Dawit is on the run from their erratic king who wants him dead and, unbeknownst to him, Aby is a married woman in the eyes of the law.

Aby feels the discord of her rash act even more as soon as she rides into Kalebtu, Nabal’s primary estate, which is as cold as the winter wind. She must navigate the harsh realities of the circumstances that threaten her, others in the village, the birth of the sanctuary, and her ever seeing Dawit again, while unraveling the burden of her weak sense of self-worth. Will she find the strength to do it and outwit the crudeness of Nabal (and that of his first wife) and steer her own destiny, or will she succumb to the nonsense that could imprison her future forever? Join Aby on her journey as she discovers that true wisdom and beauty is born from within, seeking to be free.
