Jericho city's walls gleam in the late afternoon sun, but behind them, fear never sleeps. Thirteen-year-old Rahab yearns to escape, together with her family, from a place ruled by suspicion and cruelty. Across the Jordan, the Israelite army waits, ready to topple the city. When two secret agents meet Rahab, she devises a desperate plan to hide them. Shalma, though attracted to her, knows there's no time for romance. United by their pact, Rahab risks everything to outwit ruthless pursuers. As the threat of a siege draws near, tensions and suspense rise. The city is locked down, and all routes are blocked by the deranged king. Citizens are trapped within the walls. In a world of betrayals and broken promises, Rahab learns that the price of freedom may be her very life.
