12. PENALTY EXPEDITION - SAHARA DESERT SERIES

Deep in the searing heart of the Moroccan desert, Captain Monclaire and his French Foreign Legionnaires fight for their lives at Fort Valeau. Following a brutal assault on a relief column by the dreaded Dalaks, armed with modern automatic weapons and an unquenchable hatred, the fort’s gates are blasted open, and a desperate struggle for survival unfolds.

Amidst the chaos, the enigmatic Dalak leader, El Zanal, appears, and at his side, the ravishing yet ruthless Tania, a woman whose past and motives are shrouded in mystery. The South African legionnaire, Basie Beyers, a man tormented by his own past, catches Tania’s icy gaze. A perilous, almost fatal attraction ignites between captive and conqueror, one that will test loyalties to their very limits. While the remaining legionnaires under Monclaire’s fractured leadership battle against torture and betrayal, El Zanal forges a diabolical plan. The unsuspecting punitive expedition, en route to Valeau, must be lured into an ambush, with the captured soldiers as bait.

Can Monclaire execute a final, desperate gamble to prevent the impending slaughter. Will Basie succumb to Tania’s dark promises of survival and passion, and will he find a way to save his comrades, even if it costs him his life? The sands of Fort Valeau are destined to be stained blood-red. Who will survive to tell the tale in this suspenseful saga of courage, betrayal, and forbidden desire, where every sunrise may indeed be your last?
