Cover Up in the Holy Land

In the Holy Land every archeological find leads to controversy, either between the religious and the secular, the Christians and the Jews, or the Biblical scholars and the scientists. While this book is fiction, those controversies provided the inspiration. The discovery of an historically significant burial cave, academic machinations, and a Lesbian love affair between an Israeli archeologist and a German student all highlight the homophobia, the political volatility, and the struggles to heal from the Holocaust in Israeli society in the 1970's.
