The Blood of Zealots

The Blood of Zealot, a novel, is about man in his late thirties who was orphaned at birth and approaching middle age with no hope of finding a soul mate or true happiness. Through hypnotherapy, a DNA test and traditional genealogy he is launched on an international manhunt for his biological family. I hope you will buy the book and read it at Amazon.com http://tinyurl.com/84an5zx . More importantly, I want to tell you why I wrote The Blood of Zealots, and what I hope the reader will get from their investment of time to read it. I respect your time as though it was my own, so I tried to produce a book that would both entertain and inform about some of the things in the world I find fascinating. I lost a biological parent early in life. My father left us when I was around four. My mother, two sisters and I moved in with my grandmother. Mother remarried a few years later and our new father moved us into a suburban bungalow in the upper Midwest. He adopted us, we adopted his family genealogy, he gave us his last name and the re-branding began. I was born with the Roman numeral for three after my name (III), indicating the third in an unbroken line of males; I got a new name, but no numerals. My biological father was not spoken of until I tracked him down many years later. Anyone reading the first chapters of Zealots will notice a thread of my personal story. I decided that if I were going to write, I would draw from those experiences as much as possible in order to inject authenticity into the work. I hope that has been achieved.
