A Conversation with Michael J. Cooper
This week on Crime Wave: Michael Cooper’s The Rabbi’s Knight is a richly detailed historical novel set in 1290, as war-weary Knight Templar Jonathan St. Clair joins forces with Rabbi Samuel of Baghdad to decipher a cryptic ancient scroll linked to Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. Shifting alliances, pursuit by enemies, and forbidden desires complicate the quest as their dangerous journey draws together scholars, warriors, and rivals from across faiths—including the fiercely independent Zahirah. Steeped in mysticism, faith, and suspense, the novel asks how far one will go in pursuit of truth—and what it may cost when that truth is finally revealed.
