Salome: An Invitation to the Dance begins when the Bogweasel family
spends a week by the lake, but the weather is not good. To
entertain his brood, Mr. Bogweasel, a history teacher, suggests
they do some research. Since he doesn't agree with the historical
inaccuracies of a Hollywood movie called "Salome," he makes the
biblical dancer the family's research subject. The Bogweasels
discover quite a lot about their subject, even though their efforts
are interrupted by romance and adventures on the lake. During the
barbecue that marks the end of their holiday, they announce their
findings to friends, neighbors, and extended family. They are
surprised to find out that even though 2000 years have passed since
the time of Salome, feelings still run strong. About the Author:
Raised in Holland, Marcus Johnson now resides in New Zealand.
Fascinated by the early Roman empire, the death of John the
Baptist, and disappointed in the erotic way Salome has been
portrayed in history, the author researched these topics to write
this book. His next novel is set in ancient Egypt. Publisher's
