Author Description

A boy looked up at his father. He is a painter by profession who also worked with his former girlfriend. He is a history student who discovered many of paintings although the identities of its makers remained missing. The southern French department of the Gard with its rugged landscape and harsh climate had a religious conflict of Protestants against Louis XIV that went very bloody that was not easily forgotten. A group of hotheads saw this conflict from the past as an expression of healthy nationalism and as an attempt to put them down as a nation. All these elements provide the decor and the players in a thriller that takes place in the Gard. The sunworshipper observed everything and everyone and finds his own way... In his youth, Peter de Jong wanted to write, but it remained his solitary plan. There was work to do as a geography teacher, then he followed a period in which he led a conference and text bureau. At that time, it appeared that interviews from his hand were written as short stories and articles about historical and geographical topics. Now, he lives in Southern France and he finally has the opportunity to give his imagination full space and the Sunworshipper is the first result of it.
