WWII espionage in the North African desert.

A deadly alliance between myth and war.

And an American army nurse whose only weapon is the mercy of chaos.

As empires clash across the desert, Allied nurse Virginia Lenarsic tends the wounded at a camp where every sandstorm hides a secret. When a mysterious woman gives Ginny the burned flight log of Captain Cliff Floyd-the pilot she loved and lost-she's drawn into a shadow war of spies, double agents, and gods that refuse to stay buried.

The deeper she reads, the more she uncovers: sabotage at the airbase, coded messages, and omens in the blood-red dust that whisper of something ancient stirring beneath the dunes. A reckless pilot, a missing friend, and a traitorous conspiracy blur the line between devotion and destruction. To survive, Ginny must learn when to fight, when to show mercy, and when to let chaos do its work.

From the smoke-tinged glamour of Casablanca to the mythic dread of Jaime Jo Wright and Sarah Penner, Guardian of the Red Desert is a sweeping tale of espionage, forbidden love, and the gods of war who might still walk the earth.
