Milcah

As the Israelites wander in the desert, Milcah and her four sisters find themselves orphaned and with no male siblings to Inherit land in Canaan. Foreseeing a future of poverty, no marriage and no name, Milcah, charged with courage, leads her sisters to Moses to request the right of inheritance.

Milcah entices readers to adventure through biblical times and culture as the Israelites travel to the Promised Land. It narrates tragic biblical and fictional accounts from the point of view of Milcah, the oldest of the five daughters of Zelophehad.

Milcah celebrates the power of faith and the perseverance of five orphans who face a world ruled by laws favoring males.
