Author Description

What happens when a young girl is abruptly taken away from everyone and everything she knows? When the comforts of a Bayou home are pulled from under the feet of young Rahab Auguste, she must rise above and face the challenges on the streets of the South Bronx. Discovering family secrets withheld from her, Rahab embarks on a journey down a path she never saw coming, with a mother she never knew. I Am Rahab: A Novel - Part I is a coming-of-age tale cleverly depicting the biblical account of Rahab the prostitute before the fall of Jericho, as told through the present day story of Rahab Auguste. This multi-generational fictional story is the first in a three-part series chronicling the life of Rahab as she discovers the truth about life, the pain of death, and the meaning of survival. Life rotates in cycles, and if you're not careful you can end up on a road not meant for you to travel. For a young girl plagued by her family's past, her path is just beginning.
