This author wrote a novel inspired by the 1979 siege of Mecca
Ethan T. Burroughs's Messianic Reveal narrates the story of a young man who seeks to serve his country, and in so doing, he follows his instincts into a labyrinth of conspiracies.
The novel launches from and connects to real events and real people: the 1979 siege of Mecca, Osama Bin Laden’s brother, Ayatollah Khomeini’s temporary residences in France and Iraq, and so on.
Listen to this fascinating discussion with Burrough in which we discuss the contents of his book, that are based on real events that are not talked about often due to their sensitive political and religious nature.
Burrough has dedicated much of the last two decades to exploring the Middle East and slowly unraveling its mysteries. His encounters have taken him to Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Israel, and the Palestinian Territories, where he has studied the history, faith, cuisine, language, and culture of the lands which continue to grab our headlines as we search for an elusive peace.
He is a U.S. Army veteran and political consultant.
