Last Days in Moav

By Sharon Reiss Baker

Romance, mysticism, and betrayal come together in a story of empowerment set in the harsh desert of biblical times.

16-year-old Milcah and her twin brother Gidon have a mysterious healing gift that makes them outsiders in their tribe. Unjustly accused by a neighbor of killing his goats, and promised in marriage to a scoundrel, Milcah undertakes a dangerous journey in a bid to have some control over her future.

Told by alternating narrators, including a dead brother who speaks to us from the spirit world, this historical fiction novel explores the passions and dramas of an Israelite family as they wait to cross into the Promised Land.
