Blue Ink Review<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

When his sister is killed in a mysterious car accident in Granada, Spain, U.S. Secret Service agent Gene Cerone travels to the heart of the former Islamic kingdom and is soon confronted with a confounding mystery surrounding his sister\u2019s death. In his debut novel, Len Camarda unfolds a measured, history-rich conspiracy thriller that reads like a European-based version of gritty cop flicks from the 1970\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Camarda does a nice job of spreading a mix of breadcrumbs and false leads, keeping readers in suspense. The plot eventually revolves around an unfathomable conspiracy, as well as a search by various parties for seven treasures, whose locations were long ago masked, using phrases from a collection of fables we now know as *The Arabian Nights*.<\/p>\n

\u2026 some might see echoes of Dan Brown in its fictionalization of history based on a few truths. But the novel is awash with the rich culture and vibrancy of the Iberian Peninsula. Camarda has obviously done his research and his travels in the region lend credence to the book\u2019s fertile setting and story. Readers who appreciate a complex plot and engaging historical fantasy\u00a0will find much room to roam in The Seventh Treasure.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Clarion Review<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Seventh Treasure is a thrilling first novel by Len Camarda. Set in modern-day Spain and painted with layers of history and forgotten lore, this novel combines Tom Clancy\u2019s knack for political suspense with Dan Brown\u2019s love of secret societies.<\/p>\n

Len Camarda draws from his wealth of life experience as an international businessman to add authenticity to his settings. Little details sprinkled throughout the book lend a lot of credence to the plot, and the exciting descriptions of customs and scenery are likely to infect readers with a wanderlust and maybe even a desire to book their next vacation in Granada. Also, Camarda\u2019s exhaustive research gives plausibility to the idea that Moorish royals from an ancient bloodline could be staging a comeback in the modern world.<\/p>\n

Readers of all ages who enjoy conspiracies, thrillers, and legends will love The Seventh Treasure.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From The Joplin Independent, May 24, 2012 by Jack L. Kennedy<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Politics, power and intrigue, pressures past and present often make good reading, when expressed by a good author.\u00a0 That certainly is the case in the intellectually and physically well-traveled hands of Len Camarda through The<\/em> Seventh Treasure<\/em> <\/strong>(Author House).<\/p>\n

The plot and action are well-crafted, particularly for a first novel.\u00a0 \u201cTreasure\u201d is a theatre of the mind.\u00a0 Turn off TV.\u00a0 Read this good book.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

ByLanderSea Book Review<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve \u00a0read Dan Browne\u2019s books because I enjoy \u00a0the way he entwines mystery with historical facts.\u00a0 Len Camarda\u2019s follows a similar path in this, his first novel, using the storyline from the\u00a0<em>Tales of the Arabian Nights<\/em>. His writing is descriptive, he keeps the plot moving, and involves politics (in a similar fashion to Tom Clancy) and uses plausible methods to uncover the mystery.\u00a0 If you like historical thrillers or are just looking for a good read, I suggest Len Camarda\u2019s The Seventh Treasure \u2013 and, of course, a trip to Spain!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
