Nelson K. Foley is in fact my real name, but among family, friends and acquaintances I am better known as Keith Foley. I put that down to my mother (but I have no evidence) who got confused when calling out a name, since my father was also 'Nelson'.

It seems odd that I am allowed to write a review about my own book! So, in all transparency I'm naturally recommending it as a refreshing read, but listen more to the independent reviews than me! ...more

I enjoyed it and I thought the concept was great, but you need to concentrate and keep your eye on the ball because it jumps from one character and scene to another in time. It is not the page-turner I was imagining, but a good read.

Susie Helme's new book is again full of evidence that she must devote hours and hours of research work before putting pen to paper, or finger to keyboard. There is a lot of information built around the story of a discovered scroll, but it's a little ...more
