Across a 4,000 year line of descent, an epic struggle arises to restore balance to a world gone awry... Weaving ancient Sumerian myth and legend into a modern story of intrigue and mystery, Kaalii Cargill brings to life an epic struggle across four millennia. Myth becomes strength, tales held and transferred through the years as a counterweight to written history, to arise in a time of need. In the end, Cargill creates a strong message of empowerment through a fascinating set of characters compelled always to move, but never to forget, handing down their message from mothers to daughters -- the Daughters of Time. W.B. Hafford, University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology DAUGHTERS OF TIME is an historical novel that asks "What if . . .'" What if Abraham, father of the three faiths, had a child with a Sumerian priestess? What if the child's descendants were prophesied to carry balance through two millennia to the present day?

It leads them to Haleli, a sociologist who has her own plans to save the World. Lili and Paula uncover ancient mysteries, flee from danger, and encounter an old woman who may have been alive for four thousand years. They risk everything to follow the prophecy and restore the balance. DAUGHTERS OF TIME is interwoven with archaeological, historical, and mythological details that reveal the ancient world. Follow the line of daughters through ancient Sumer, Egypt, and Jerusalem, and into the modern world. Discover a secret that will change the way you see the world . . .
