Etruscan Evenings released!

Etruscan Evenings lies in the sensuous curvature of ancient

and present day Italy. The sequel to Cairo Diary: an Egyptian

fable, follows the life of anthropologist Dr. Justine Jenner

after she is expelled from Egypt in the wake of discovering

and making public the controversial diary of the Virgin Mary.

Exiled into Tuscany, Jenner finds herself embroiled in three

interwoven stories of discovery: the long-lost letters from D.H.

Lawrence to her great-grandmother, Isabella; an Etruscan

tomb revealing the origin and migration of an ancient people

predating Rome; and the genealogy of the Virgin Mary and

Jesus. While shaken by the frank revelations in Lawrence’s

letters and the intimate relationship between the primeval

Etruscans and Jesus’ mother, Jenner must confront her own

sexuality and yearning for personal freedom. The second in a

trilogy, Etruscan Evenings is riveted with literary, religious and

archeological history and international politics, each narrative

magnifying and altering the meaning of the others.  Get Etruscan Evenings

by ordering at your local bookstore, Authorhouse.com, Amazon or Barnes & Noble on-line.
