Summary

SAHARA
 
Ten years ago, he commanded the firing squad.
 
Now, a killer storm has trapped him in a desert ruin with the dead man’s son.
 
Vengeance will be paid in blood before the night is over.
 
In the brutal Sahara desert, a cataclysmic sandstorm forces Captain Pleuteur and his French Foreign Legion patrol into a desolate, ancient temple. They are not alone. Inside waits Es Jissali, a Tuareg leader who has spent a decade dreaming of revenge against the man who executed his father.
 
As the storm seals them in, the temple becomes a pitch-black tomb where every shadow hides a blade. With the darkness as their ally, Jissali’s warriors begin their silent hunt. Pleuteur must protect not only his men but also the estranged wife who just crash-landed at his feet, fighting an enemy who moves like a phantom and kills without a sound.
 
This explosive, action-packed historical thriller is a must-read for fans of Wilbur Smith and Alistair MacLean. A classic adventure filled with raw suspense, this is a tale of survival, betrayal, and a desperate battle against a foe who knows only one law, and that is vengeance.

    The French Revolution comes to vivid life as the USA Today–bestselling author’s Devereux Trilogy continues. “A joy to read!” (RT Book Reviews).   As the newly appointed commissioner, Philippe Duhet has the power of life and death over the local French aristocracy. In return for her family’s safe passage out of the country, the breathtakingly lovely Claire Devereux agrees to be his mistress. She is to live in his luxurious quarters, to be seen with him about town, and to accommodate his desires whenever he wishes.   Claire surrendered her body to Duhet, but swore he’d never break her spirit. What she didn’t know was that the real Duhet had been abducted, and his American twin brother, Adam Dillon, was installed in his place as a spy. And she was devastated to find that her body was not at all immune to the pleasures of Duhet’s caress, nor her heart to his intoxicating company.   “I consider Elizabeth Thornton a major find.” —Mary Balogh, New York Times–bestselling author of the Westcott Novels
