Author Biography
Jacqueline St. Clare spent six months at a cloistered convent before entering college, earning a degree in Near Eastern Studies and minors in Israeli Studies and Creative Writing. With this education, and two trips to the Holy Land, she highly researched this, her first novel, both historically and even emotionally, as she literally walked the very roads her characters walk.
