Tiy, reine d'Egypte, se rendait au bord du Nil pour se baigner quand elle trouva l'enfant dans une corbeille. Elle l'adopta, l'appela Moïse, ce qui signifie : "Sauvé des eaux", et l'éleva comme son propre fils. Il échappait ainsi au décret royal qui vouait à la mort tout enfant mâle hébreu. Sauvé ! Mais pourquoi ? Moïse l'apprend plus tard lorsque, découvrant la vérité sur ses origines, il fuit dans le désert. Dieu lui apparaît alors : "Tu iras trouver Pharaon, et tu lui diras: laisse partir mon peuple." Que peut faire un homme seul contre le puissant Pharaon ?

Inspiré du Livre de l'Exode et du film Le Prince d'Egypte, ce roman retrace l'épopée du peuple hébreu en captivité et de son guide spirituel, Moïse.
