    Based on the real-life Akkadian princess and high-priestess Enheduanna, this novel explores the life of history's first author. 
    An outspoken visionary with a talent for writing down her deepest emotions, Enheduanna's life is turned upside-down when the god Nanna chooses her to become the high priestess of Ur. 
    
    As her power in the city of Ur grows, so does her list of enemies. But her own safety is the least of her worries when thousands depend on her to keep the vengeful gods happy, and their land safe.
    
    Either way, Enheduanna is not willing to go down without a fight. 
    
    One way or another, she will carve her own path, and nobody is going to erase her from the pages of history.
