Inspired by the true story of Enheduanna...
Ancient Mesopotamia, 2300 B.C.E. Can Esh achieve her destiny despite being a political pawn in the world's first empire? Spirited, clever Esh is devoted to her family's patron goddess, Inanna, and is determined to be Her priestess one day. But girls, even a princess like Esh, have little say in their futures. Her father, Sargon the Great, uses her for political gain. Despite her wishes, she becomes the Enheduanna, the human wife of the moon god and the most powerful woman in the Akkadian empire. Now, Sargon gives Esh a mission: use her religious authority to unite the fractious cities of the empire. Over decades, aided by her lifelong friend, Ninsha, and torn between duty and destiny, she struggles to stay faithful to Inanna against a background of rebellions, assassinations, and treachery.
