Listen to John Austin from the "Book Club" interview Michael Cole about two of his books, The Papyrus Document and Secrets of El Tovar Canyon, as well as what he's working on now!

Michael Cole's new book, Secrets of El Tovar Canyon, is a captivating story of the "aliens have visited earth" theme found often in American literature. However, Cole's creative angle and more believable plot involves the pyramids of Egypt and El Tovar Canyon on the Colorado River in Grand Canyon, Arizona.
Cole's writing is direct and not convoluted. His character's are vivid and interesting in and of themselves. The book is a quick read with short chapters and it held my interest throughout a round-trip flight from LAX to Detroit. Some movie director—like Steven Spielberg—could develop a good and profitable movie out of Cole's story.

As I turned each page, I was anxious to discover the SECRETS OF EL TOVAR CANYON. Michael Cole, a wonderful storyteller, keeps you in suspense, and emotionally involved in each character. He is concise, creative, and holds your interest to the very end.
An Enjoyable Read.

Michael Cole's third mystery novel, Secrets of El Tovar Canyon, puts a new twist on the age-old questions: How old is the Sphinx?
Who were the architects of the pyramids? The traditional theory
that the pharaohs built the great monuments four thousand years
ago is shattered.
When an ancient tablet with mysterious cuneiforms is found at
the bottom of the Grand Canyon, an unscrupulous antiquities dealer
hires an archaeologist to identify its origin. Unable to decipher the
hieroglyphic-type writing, he contacts an Egyptologist, an archeoastronomer,
and a world-renowed cryptologist.
They set off to Egypt on an adventure to try and link the ancient tablet
to a golden statue deep within the Sphinx's paw.
Just as they feel they're on the verge of discovering the secret
contained in the cryptologist's message, the U.S. government mysteriously
intervenes. Ending in a long-forgotten cave in Arizona, they are now faced
with an appalling choice: to share with the world what they have learned
and compromise U.S. security, or to keep the information to themselves
and relegate future generations to an inhospitable world.
