Shadow of the Rock

A NATION IN CONFLICT...A HOUSE DIVIDED...A MAN AT WAR...WITH HIMSELF

It was an era of turbulence and division: between Israel and Judea, between King David and Joab, his cousin and General of his armies - and within Joab's own heart. Married to one woman, he was ruled by a boudless passion for another, Hastar, a beautiful Philistine slave.

Vividly etched against a stunning backdrop of pageantry and war, faith and uncertainty, triumph and bitter defeat, this is the story of David and Joab, two powerful men obsessed with ambition, and of one woman, Hastar, whose quiet courage spurs the creation of a great nation and the union of its people.
