Call Me Keturah…

A sweeping saga of adventure, danger, and destiny in the Arabian world of 2026 BC.

Ten year old Keturah lives for adventure - racing donkeys through the oasis, mastering bow and her Arabian, and repelling an army of caravan-raiding Shasu desert people, with Mirra, her fearless constant companion, assigned to her at birth - handmaid, sister, guardian, and warrior.

But her world is no ordinary childhood. She is the daughter of a powerful tribal chieftain, trained by a Sumerian master scholar and 5 masters of war arts; groomed for warfare and a future that will bind clans and shape trade routes across Arabia past the known world.

When Keturah and Mirra sneak beyond the north gate to the hidden Cold Spring, they encounter a stranger whose brilliant white hair and golden sash mark Him as someone far more than a traveler.
