Legacies of the Ancient River

Legacies of the Ancient River expands the Genesis account of Joseph into a family saga set in ancient Egypt. The trilogy follows Joseph’s rise from enslavement to power, his confrontation with the brothers who sold him, and the uncertain place of the next generation as Hebrews prosper within an Egyptian state that is not their homeland.

The novels combine romance and invented viewpoints with the biblical themes of dreams, famine, guilt, reconciliation and providence. Rather than ending when Joseph reveals his identity, the series asks how forgiveness changes a damaged family and how Ephraim and Manasseh inherit both Egyptian privilege and Israelite memory.
