Sirocco, Storm over Land and Sea

Additional Info for Reviewers & Staff

After my 3080 BC-HF breech birth with KHAMSIN’S 150,000 words, I was done. Until an enthusiastic friend insisted she wanted more and mercilessly nagged me to write a sequel. The rest became (modern) history, as SIROCCO (Book 2) plays out during the 2011 Arab Spring.
However, its story is anchored in the fifty golden tablets (a major theme running through Book 1 - KHAMSIN, The Devil Wind of The Nile.
Then, my cover designer included a little winged scarab. The light bulb went on and the “Legends of the Winged Scarab” series was born (I actually went back and augmented a chapter in Khamsin to highlight the importance of the little dung beetle).
With Sirocco, I thought I was really done. Just to make sure, I blithely killed off my protagonists. Then, one of my loyal reviewers wrote (privately): “I want Jonathan laid, not “deayed.” (he’s a poet; hence the rhyme). With that, he cemented my protagonists’ love and saved their lives. He also opened the door for another sequel…After the Cataclysm (Book 3).

Multiple reviewers/Beta readers/readings of print copy.

Sirocco, Storm over Land and Sea, is the present-day Book 2 of the "Legends of the Winged Scarab,” my historical fiction series about the mystery of Ancient Egypt.
This modern-day action & adventure thriller has tie-ins to Khamsin, The Devil Wind of The Nile (Book 1 - 3080 BC), as well as Sirocco's modern-day sequel, After the Cataclysm (Book 3), Book 4, The Crystal Curse, and Book 5, The Nile Conspiracy.
While a common threat runs through all volumes, each novel can stand alone.

Warning: Due to the stormy Mediterranean, a dose of Dramamine might be advisable.
