This is a signed copy The Daughters of Ishtar are devoted to reestablish globally their long defunct matriarchal culture. Several times in history, the group failed to reestablish their society, the most significant of which happened almost two thousand years ago. It was led by the most maligned female biblical character of the Christian Bible. A criminology professor, Kirby Allen, and an undercover operative, Carolyn Thomas, probing the murder of a real estate mogul's daughter, discover the Daughterhood's current conspiracy to alter civilization for all time. The search leads the pair through a bevy of uniquely qualified scientists of various disciplines, and scholarly clerics, experts on the group's origin and activities. The pursuit takes them to Israel, England, Mexico, and throughout the US, where they gradually piece together the makeup of the Daughterhood and the details of their diabolical conspiracy. Finally, the investigative pair devise a counter strategy to neutralize the group's plot.
