About the author
Desmond G Palmer writes archaeological thrillers featuring the characters Natasha Travers and Lucas Redmond, published by Destiny Books. His novel The Eye of Nineveh (2023) follows the pair investigating an artefact stolen from the British Museum, while The Magdalene Creed (2024) sends them on an expedition tied to the legendary Holy Grail. Both books combine adventure fiction with ancient-world mystery, drawing on biblical and archaeological lore as narrative material rather than as factual claim. The series pairs a strained professional and personal relationship between its two leads with fast-paced plotting typical of the genre. These books suit readers who enjoy archaeological adventure fiction in the vein of relic-hunting thrillers, with recurring characters and a shared fictional world across installments. No further biographical detail about the author is available from the catalogue.
