What would you do with this treasure in your hands is a question put to the reader to ponder. Look to the last page
for a twist by the author.
I enjoyed this novel from Raymond Khoury alot because of the historical aspect of it and the secrets from our history
pages that continue to intrigue many even in these modern times. Secrets best left alone? or worth looking into?
History has a way of repeating itself. It's the circle of life.
