For another great read, look for HUNTING THE KING by Peter Clenott, coming out in April. HUNTING THE KING follows archaeologist Molly O'Dwyer into war torn Iraq in search of the remains of Jesus. Booklist says: "This is a very readable thriller." ForeWord Magazine says: "Fans of intellectual thrillers and historical fiction will find a worthy new voice in Clenott. Given such an auspicious start, the sequel can't come too soon." Check out HUNTING THE KING (ISBN 9781601641489) from Kuanti Books, this April.
