In the June 2008 issue of Bryn Mawr College's Science and Technology magazine is a short article about Sarah's day job and how it fuels her writing. An interview with Sarah and her son Nick (a.k.a. Tom Underhill) appears in an earlier issue of Mysterical-E. Check out this interview in "Voices in Mystery"  on YouTube (October 2008).
The Dead Sea Codex Archaeologists race to find a lost codex before Christian fanatics destroy it... "Sarah Wisseman's second entry in the Lisa Donahue series is entertaining and satisfying. It is a slim volume (only 150 pages in length) and this is a strength. Her prose is spare but evocative and one gains an insight into the sights and smells and atmosphere of Israel, from the souks of the Old City to the incredible desolation of the Dead Sea area. The characters are credible and the adventure and the danger--especially in the environment of the Dead Sea caves--are palpable. I look forward to more of Lisa's archaeological adventures--as either a care-free ABD or as a world-weary widow and single parent." Bill Grescens, Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center at University of Wisconsin at LaCrosse. "If you liked The Da Vinci Code, you'll love The Dead Sea Codex."
