The Fort is Silent

The fort was silent.

The gate was open.

And the only guards were the vultures circling overhead.

Sahara desert, 1940–1960. Lieutenant Juin and his patrol of hardened French Foreign Legionnaires arrive at the remote Fort Laval expecting a routine three-month post. Instead, they find the outpost eerily deserted, the previous garrison vanished, and a lethally beautiful woman in command.

She is Brigitte de Bonnet, a woman consumed by a thirst for vengeance against the Legion. Trapped and disarmed, Juin’s men become pawns in her horrifying experiment. To test a new, unspeakable chemical weapon on live soldiers. One by one, they are dragged away to an agonizing fate, their screams swallowed by the Sahara.

Weakened by a cruel game of starvation and thirst, the remaining soldiers must rally for one last, desperate fight. Their survival is not the only thing at stake. If they fail, a new kind of terror will be unleashed across the desert.

A blistering military thriller that blends high-stakes action with gripping suspense, The Fort is Silent is perfect for fans of Alistair MacLean and classic edge-of-your-seat adventures where courage is the only weapon against impossible odds.
