MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - s4story -- A new book by Mike Meier (author of the books & screenplays "JoinWith.Me" and "The Love Hex or Nicest Flings in Mexico") will be published this Fall, a stone age story entitled "The Final Days of Doggerland." It is a story of survival in Northern Europe: A young woman in hunter-gatherer times relies on her skills for crafting poisons to survive after being captured by a hostile tribe.

Mike Meier explains where he got the inspiration for the story: "It was in early December 2020 that a scientific article about the first use of spices in food caught my attention. According to that and other articles I later found, garlic mustard had first been used in Northern Europe about six thousand years ago. Since I was born in Northern Europe myself, this fact alone piqued my curiosity."

Many aspects of the story are based on archeological facts, such as the migration of the Yamnaya people, the gradual disappearance of Doggerland, the use of garlic mustard to spice food, and the arrival of blue-eyed people from the area of the Black Sea.

Explains Meier, "As I continued reading about those findings, I discovered that around the same time, migrants from the Black Sea area arrived in Northern Europe and brought a genetic mutation with them—blue eyes. Finally, it was around the time that the land that connected Great Britain with Northern Europe, what we now call Doggerland, disappeared into the sea. With that, I had found the ingredients—literally—of a story based on true archeological facts."
