Greg Fisher- Hudson Novelist

Greg Fisher is the author of The Iranian Conspiracy. When archaeologist Andrew Thorpe hears about the chance discovery of a new Latin inscription at a remote volcano in southern Syria he embarks upon a quest which takes him to some of the most secretive and spectacular archaeological sites of the Middle East. He battles unseen forces to prevent an international catastrophe which threatens to destroy the prospects for peace in the Middle East once and for all.
