The Sign Above the Door
The Sign Above the Door is an exciting tale woven around the events of the plagues in Egypt and the Exodus told from the Egyptian perspective. It provides a good look at life in Egypt during this time period.
Young Prince Martiesen is ruler of the land of Goshen in Egypt, where the Hebrews live. Eight plagues have already come upon Egypt. Now, Pharaoh has forced Martiesen to further increase the burden of the Hebrews. Martiesen, however, is in love with the beautiful Hebrew maiden, Elisheba — whom Egyptian law forbids him to marry.
As the nation despairs, the other nobles turn to Martiesen for leadership. But before he can decide what to do, the evil Peshala kidnaps Elisheba and terrifying darkness falls over the land.
