David: God’s Chosen Crucible (The Empire of Israel Book 2) by Joseph Ganci
David had reached the pinnacle of success and has created the empire of Israel and is master of all he surveys. He has married his soul mate Bathsheba who is pregnant with his now legitimate child. David is confronted by Nathan the prophet and is tricked into judging himself and naming his own punishment.The prophet proclaims that the sword will never leave your house. What follows is death, destruction, incest, and family murder and the concession of human sacrifice.
