Jay Bailey is an American-born writer who has lived in Efrat, Israel with his wife, Dena, and their three children since 1995. A longtime devotee of historical fiction, biblical archaeology, and the history, culture, and geography of both ancient and modern Israel, he draws from his decades of business-oriented storytelling as a long-time marketer, and as a student in Israel’s national Tour Guide course. He has also volunteered on archaeological digs, experiences that deepened his fascination with the Philistines and early Israel. Before turning to fiction, Jay served for a decade as Director of Communications at Answers dot com in Jerusalem and later founded RapidFire Consulting, crafting narrative messaging and video and print design for companies and nonprofits. He has written columns for The Jerusalem Post and New York Jewish Week. The Blood of Birds, his debut novel, unfolds in the time of King David; his next book is a mystery set in the tumultuous Second Temple period, with its battling sects and dramatic rituals.
