Will iconic images recorded in the grooves of an ancient vase unite the Holy Land or rip it further apart?
THE VASE
A novel by Mark M. DeRobertis
Muhsin Muhabi is a Palestinian potter, descended from a long line of potters. His business is run from the same shop owned by his ancestors since the day his forebears moved to Nazareth. The region's conflict saw the death of his oldest son, and rogue terrorists are in the process of recruiting his youngest in their plot to assassinate the Pope and Israeli prime minister.
Professor Hiram Weiss is an art historian at Nazareth’s Bethel University. He is also a Shin Bet operative on special assignment. With the help of fellow agent, Captain Benny Mathias, he plans to destroy the gang responsible for the death of his wife and only child. He puts a bomb in the ancient vase he takes on loan from Muhsin’s Pottery Shop.
Mary Levin, the charming assistant to the director of Shin Bet, has lost a husband and most of her extended family to recurring wars and never-ending terrorism. She dedicates her life to the preservation of Israel, but to whom will she dedicate her heart? The brilliant professor from Bethel University? Or the gallant captain who now leads Kidon?
Harvey Holmes, the Sherlock of Haunted Houses, is a Hollywood TV host whose reality show just flopped. When a Lebanese restaurant owner requests his ghost-hunting services, he believes the opportunity will resurrect his career. All he has to do is exorcise the ghosts that are haunting the restaurant. It happens to be located right across the street from Muhsin’s Pottery Shop.

Readers of the Blog
I guess they are blog-hoppers. There are sites that enable people to do that. I wish they were book readers, too. If those kind of numbers translated into buyers of the books that I promote on this blog, that would be great. But they don't. Not that I can figure anyway. If they did, I wouldn't be so bent on promoting the books.
Put it this way. If you're reading this blog, and you like books, BUY A COPY of Killer of Killers or The Vase. I would appreciate it. But again, that's if you like books. That's if you like a great story. That's if you have some money. LOL. I figure if you've got the money to buy a computer, no matter what country you're in, then you have enough money to buy a book. There's no doubting that. So take advantage of this opportunity. All you have to do is click on the images to the right of this post. Once you do that, you can choose a print book or an eBook. And thanks.
