Letters of a Bloodline - Book 0: Thicker Than Blood: A Short Prequel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789353916503)

Treacherous pirates. A pharaoh's secret. Your family connection. What links the last Egyptian pharaoh in 360 BC to the nastiest pirates of the 1690s? The answer lies in a fiercely guarded secret chain of letters of your ancestors. And it's been around for five hundred generations! You have the oldest family tradition in the world - a secret practice your cavemen ancestors started in 13,000 BC. It's time for you to discover the secret history of your ancestors; in their own words. These letters bind your bloodline with a bond thicker than blood. "Thicker Than Blood" is a fast-paced, short read, and is the prequel to the "Letters of a Bloodline" series. This novella contains two uncannily connected short stories. The ending plunges you right into "Maya's Confession", the first full-length novel of the series. About the author: Jay Puranik is the winner of Literati 2019 (South Asian award for microfiction).
