Revealer of Secrets: The Rise of Daniel - Book Three

Book three of the Rise of Daniel follows Daniel, Jeremiah, and Nebuchadnezzar through the dark period of the Babylonian Captivity. Daniel has gained favor within Nebuchadnezzar's court, but this creates envy in those who resent his rise to power. An array of evil spirits arises against him, threatening to destroy him, his friends, and his people. Daniel walks a thin line of survival where a single misstep could see him consumed by the evil spirits seeking his life. Such is the danger that even his friendship with Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah is in jeopardy. And Nebuchadnezzar has a dream, one he cannot recall. But a dark dread falls upon him, and until he can remember the dream and understand the interpretation, he can find no rest. And with Judah rebelling against him once again, his anger becomes the catalyst that threatens to destroy all of Judah and Jerusalem-and even himself. He wants to end the rebellion once and for all in a sea of blood, no matter the cost. Meanwhile, Jeremiah the prophet is caught up in the thick of a conspiracy so twisted that it becomes difficult to know friend from foe. King Jehoiakim has rebellion against King Nebuchadnezzar, but his son and brother seek to overthrow him and steal the throne if they can, and they pull Jeremiah into the conspiracy against his will. To Jeremiah, no matter what he does, it will end in one way: his death. A fast, action-packed read filled with danger, political intrigue, and betrayal. Containing an air of ancient ambience, well-researched both biblically and historically, this first book in The Rise of Daniel novels will delight and challenge.
