One reviewer likened this story to, The Thorn Birds.
After the unexpected death of his father, Joel inherits a mysterious antique passed down through multiple generations of his family. When he discovers its hidden contents, it sets in motion a chain of predestined spiritual events dating back not only to 70 A.D.—when the high priest recorded his firsthand account of the missing body of Jesus of Nazareth—but also to the foundations of the earth.
As the historical significance of the ancient heirloom is revealed, Joel and his wife Hannah, a security officer for the Israeli Consulate, find themselves entangled in a dangerous conflict with an invisible enemy desperately trying to suppress their discovery, and a powerful secret society determined to do anything to get their hands on it.
Over My Dead Body is a dramatic saga of historical espionage set against the backdrops of ancient Rome, World War II, and the Courtroom of Heaven. This modern-day adventure of biblical proportion thoroughly delights right up to its riveting, supernatural finale.
THE AUTHOR KELLY FITZGERALD Fitzgerald Fowler The inspiration for the Novel, Over My Dead Body, began with my own study of biblical historical events from Rome and Israel. I wanted my readers to be able to time travel through history with me from ancient Rome and World War II to arrive in current time with my main character Joel. I hope the reader will enjoy the adventure as well as some of my favorite places on earth; NYC, Jerusalem, Rome, Italy, and Turkey. If you like Frank Peretti, This Present Darkness or Dan Brown, TheDa Vinci Code, you are going to love Over My Dead Body. For the person who thinks they are a lost cause. Read the book. He is a God of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th chances. Be encouraged. 5STARS ***** Talk about a writer who knows how to keep your attention and the first author I'll mention would be Kelly Fitzgerald Fowler. Not only was this book intriguing but it also kept me guessing about the ending until I turned the last page. Being both a fan of history and fictional books, this book combined the two expertly; just enough historical accuracy to seem true and just enough fiction to add an extra dimension to the characters, places, and plot. I absolutely cannot wait for another book by this author! 5STARS***** I am a fan! This story is believable and amazingly exciting, a real page-turner. I felt myself stopping and thinking about what I just read. The exciting chase for the truth across the world will keep you asking for more When they got to Tel Aviv you are holding your breath. I am amazed at the faithfulness of the people in the story and how true to life it most likely is. The suspense is killing me!! The supernatural tension is overwhelmingly sweet and scary at the same time. The court room is full of amazing accusation from the accused who is the truths of many evils. I cannot wait for more!!
