Preview:

The Secret Chord by Geraldine Brooks is a fictionalized story of the Old Testament hero and king, David.

Natan, friend and advisor to King David, receives permission to write Davids biography. David has asked Natan to use three sources who knew David before Natan met him. These include Mikhal, the first of Davids wives, Shammah, Davids older brother, and Nizevet, a member of Shammahs household in Beit Lehem.

As he travels to meet Shammah and Nizevet, Natan thinks on how David kept the roads free of bandits, making him remember how David was once a bandit himself. That was when Natan and David met. Natan was a 10 year old herding his fathers goats when his flock wandered into Davids bandit camp. David sent Natan home with a message instructing his father to provide food and wine for the bandits.

Avigail, Davids kind and wise third wife, warned Natan that David would retaliate if Natans father denied him
