Cataclysm in Blue Water is an epic journey filled with intrigue,
romance, thievery, murder, and natural disaster over the course of
four thousand years. The desperate wish of a half-Eqyptian
half-Minoan boy, who crafts a granulated gold starfish pendant in
1886 B.C. to honor his mother, is the heart of this novel. A
riveting modern mystery weaves in and out of an ancient mystery.
From the royal workshop of King Amenemhet II of the Twelfth Dynasty
of Egypt - to the Bronze-Age world of the Minoans and the horrific
volcanic eruption of Santorini -to the professor who discovered the
ash-covered village known today as Akrotiri -and to our unrelenting
modern-day heroine Krista, who uncovers the truth - the reader is
swept along an amazing and breathtaking journey. This novel is
based on historical and geologic truth. The reader will enjoy a
fresh approach to an enduring enigma. While focused on the human
drama in the lives of several fascinating ancient characters, the
reader is given a ground-zero view of one of the greatest volcanic
eruptions of all time. Through the eyes of the nature-loving,
sophisticated, and technically-advanced Minoans, who were living in
the midst of geologic madness, the reader gets a glimpse of what is
likely the birth of the legend of Atlantis.
