THE SEEKER, A BOY IN SEARCH OF HIS NAME, follows a boy on an epic journey of self-discovery set in Israel during biblical times. The story opens 12 years after the boy’s birth. He is a thief in Jerusalem, stealing to survive, being pursued by men who believe the hand that steals must be severed from the body. Twelve years before, a mysterious Keeper of Names named him Bakbakkar moments after his mother died giving birth to him. His grief-stricken father deserts him and flees into the desert to die. His aunt and uncle adopt him, but a tragic revelation and accident cause him to be cast out. There is only one answer; he will either discover his true name—who he really is—or die. The Keeper who named the boy guides him to places where he begins to know that seeing is more important than what is seen. Each revelation is an opportunity to discover his name or to move closer to certain death. Finally, he stands at a crossroads that lead him back to his uncle, to Jerusalem or into the desert where his father fled.
