Book One in the Mystery of the Matriarchs SagaWinner of the Firebird International Book Award – Cross Genre Fiction Before the prophecy. Before the blue light. Before The Matriarch Messiah… there was the secret that started it all. “A rich and deeply layered epic story — a spiritual odyssey with the heartbeat of an action adventure.” “It may make you think, ponder, reflect upon where we came from and where we are going.” “A story of love like no other.” Twelve thousand years ago, a matriarch’s legacy was hidden in the stones of the world’s oldest temple. Today, Zara Khatum — Kurdish warrior, survivor, and seeker of justice — is drawn into a deadly race to uncover it. Haunted by visions of a man she’s never met, she crosses paths with Peter Gollinger, a Californian whose family is bound to the same ancient mystery. From the ruins of Göbekli Tepe to the war‑scarred valleys of the Middle East, Zara and Peter must decode a genetic secret that could rewrite human history — and ignite a modern conflict that will shape the events of The Matriarch Messiah. Pursued by ruthless enemies and shadowed by a legacy they barely understand, they’ll face impossible choices about faith, destiny, and each other. The decisions they make here will echo across millennia… and into the next chapter of the saga.
