Famine threatens the kingdom while neither priest nor sage can decipher the king's Horus dream. The slave drawn from the garrison is a sand dweller, a vile Asiatic from beyond the northern borders of Egypt. His interpretation seems, at first, a desperate snatch at freedom, but when his words prove true, he is raised to inconceivable heights. The courtiers of the king's house are fascinated with the god-kissed Asiatic. But when Yoseph's astute sense of order reveals extortion, the king must check the integrity of his administrators or remain a pawn of his own government. Yoseph has paid the price for integrity. The first of heavy fines were exacted by jealous brothers, the next by his master's lascivious wife. As vizier, he confronts corruption with the authority of a king's seal. And this time, integrity might cost him everything. Enter the columned hall of the king's house for the retelling of the biblical story of Joseph as you've never heard it before.
