Thirty-five hours to live.
Trapped in their own fortress, they are no longer soldiers.
They are guinea pigs in a madman’s terrifying experiment.
Sahara desert, 1940–1960. The legendary Captain D’Arlan, “the Houdini of the Sahara,” marches his column of elite French Foreign Legionnaires straight into an ambush. Their destination, Fort Laval, has already fallen from within, betrayed into the hands of Boelganof, the most ruthless terror in all of Africa. Disarmed and imprisoned, the hunters have become the hunted.
But Boelganof’s plan is more sinister than a simple execution. In less than two days, an experimental rocket will obliterate the fort, and the captured Legionnaires are the test subjects. With their captain mysteriously missing and traitors in every shadow, the clock is ticking down to total annihilation.
As the desert sun beats down, a desperate gamble involving an ancient treasure and whispered legends is their only hope. But in a game of shifting loyalties and brutal betrayals, can they outwit a devil before he unleashes hell from the heavens?
This is a relentless military thriller packed with the high-stakes suspense of a classic action-adventure. Perfect for fans of Alistair MacLean, Jack Higgins, and the pulse-pounding action of Lee Child.
