David Grogan asked David E. Grogan:

What was your motivation for writing The Hidden Key?

David E. Grogan Ancient artifacts have always intrigued me. Each one has a story just waiting to be unlocked, and people want to know what those stories are. Throngs of people flow through museums to look at objects from the past, or visit ancient Greece and Rome each year. Some are so captivated that they have to possess what they see, even if it means stealing or entering the black market to do so. In fact, both the New York Times and Washington Post have recent articles about wealthy people getting caught up in smuggling ancient artifacts, hoping to exploit for themselves the secrets they hold. The Hidden Key explores the magnetic pull ancient artifacts have over all of us, drawing us closer to them even as we try to resist.
