My first historical novel, "Akeldama," has just been released and is available at: http://www.lulu.com/content/165345. A brief synopsis appears below.

###


What is his name? Who is he?

From tetrarchs and governors to centurions and outcasts, ancient Palestine buzzes with these questions, as do three seemingly unrelated women. Step into this historical novel and meet beautiful Yo-hannah, whose tortured past has imprisoned her body and heart. Walk in the stooped steps of Veronica, whose mysterious, incurable malady has made her ceremonially unclean. Thirst for living water with a half-breed whose checkered past is about to catch up with her.

Thrown together from different dead-ends, each woman seeks an answer to her own desperation. Will Yo-hannah find the peace she craves? Can an unclean woman receive a touch of mercy? Where can a despised half-breed go to be made whole? And what about old Hadessa, whose enigmatic past is as mysterious as the young man who crosses each woman’s path? They come from different races, villages, pasts, and presents, but each woman’s life and future hinges on his answer to one question: Who are you?

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
