    A slave rises from a garrison prison to save Egypt, but first, he must save the king. 
    There are things more dangerous than interpreting the dream of a sovereign, like convincing him of corruption among his top officials.  
    But integrity has its price. 
    And Yoseph has already paid that price at the hands of jealous brothers and for the lie of his master's wife. 
    Now he has risen to second in command of the realm, and with the authority of a king's seal, integrity might cost him everything...even his life. 
    This Biblical epic is not only a slow-building Biblical fiction romance but is also full of Egyptian intrigue and kingdom plots.
