The Bekaa
by Ray Sproule


An adventure tale with murder, intrigue, treasure and romance—amid intimations of a past where Phoenician triremes sailed the Mediterranean Sea—set in 1957 strife-ridden Lebanon. It follows freelance journalist Matthew Thorne from Montreal, Paris, and Beirut to Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, in pursuit of the murder of an old, mercurial college friend.
