Coming Soon

A Casablanca for modern readers, this clean, high-tension espionage thriller merges a fresh World War II setting with cross-genre romance to deliver an unstoppable, multimarket read.

Casablanca, 1942.

The world is engulfed by war, and in the shadows of Vichy-controlled Morocco, loyalties are as dangerous as bullets.

American vice-consul Jonas Moreno is a diplomat, not a spy–but in Morocco, the line between diplomacy and espionage is vanishing fast. While helping refugees flee Nazi-controlled territory, Jonas is drawn into covert operations supporting a planned Allied invasion of North Africa. But when a mission goes terribly wrong, erupting in gunfire on the Casablanca waterfront, everything changes–Jonas is wounded, and the woman he loves is left fighting for her life.

When French Arab Nora Dantes awakens in a Casablanca hospital, she remembers nothing of her past–not her family, her work at the American consulate, or the man who claims she held his whole heart. Though fragments of instinct remain, Nora no longer knows which side she belongs on within the divided world of French Morocco, where questions of loyalty, identity, and allegiance carry deadly consequences.

As Jonas struggles to rebuild a relationship shattered by violence and amnesia, Allied forces move closer to launching a set of massive amphibious landings that could change the course of the war. But Morocco is crowded with Nazi operatives, informants, and collaborators determined to stop the operation before it begins. With tensions rising across Casablanca, Jonas and Nora find themselves caught between competing loyalties, dangerous secrets, and a future neither of them can clearly see.
