Mosaic Deceptions
When Matt Clements meets an enigmatic prophet on the Kurdistan border, he is set on the trail of ancient relics that have profound consequences for our time. Assembling his team, he travels to the most remote desert regions of the Middle East, unaware that the search for evidence endangers all their lives.
In a race against time, Matt must outwit his adversaries to present his discoveries publicly in New York – discoveries that will send shockwaves throughout the Western world and rewrite history as we know it.
‘A real page-turner that jolts us out of complacency with a bold and clever plot’
― Dazed and Confused

About the author
Patrick Gooch
18 books3 followersI studied History of Art, and lectured at the Central School of Art and Design in London. However, marketing was my main occupation; and in this role I have worked for a number of German, American and British companies.
Latterly, I joined the family trade development company, working principally with government departments of foreign countries. To relieve the tedium of long -haul flights and the four walls of rooms in impersonal hotels, I turned to writing.
Over time, the number of manuscripts grew, and were stored in the metaphorical
bottom drawer. The number reached the point where, in exasperation, my wife
declared I should either attempt to get them published, or she would. In fact, she
did submit the first novel; and, to date, 12 novels of mine have been published.

Gooch predicts a female Islamic prophet will shake up our views of men and women's roles under Islam. The Arab Spring seems to be doing the job equally well... this is a kind of detective/adventure/ thriller that bowls along with the archeologist hero (shades of Indiana Jones, only more English)facing one challenge after another. It would make a decent movie and the ending in New York at the Un building is spectacular.
