Miriam is a Hebrew-Egyptian girl who lived through the events
leading up to the departure of the Israelites from Egypt. She lives
on a country estate, and when Pharaoh agrees to "let the people
go," her family has to decide whether to remain in Egypt, where
they have made themselves quite comfortable, or throw their lot in
with the larger Israelite community. Since Miriam's family is
outside the protected area where most of the Israelites live, they
experience the plagues as the Egyptians did, and they learn of
momentous events through messengers and rumors. Adults don't offer
Miriam many explanations, so she has to come to her own
conclusions.
