Out of Time in the Desert

A modern U.S. Army platoon. A century-old battlefield. One impossible mission for survival.

When Lieutenant Greg Evans and his 82nd Airborne platoon set out on what should have been a routine reconnaissance patrol in Iraq, nothing prepares them for the supernatural sandstorm that hurls them back in time—straight into the year 1920, at the height of the Iraqi Revolt against British rule.

Stranded more than a century in the past with no communication, no backup, and no understanding of how they arrived there, the paratroopers must quickly adapt. Their only allies: a besieged contingent of Royal Welsh Fusiliers defending a remote train station against hundreds of tribal fighters.

As Evans’s platoon and the desperate British defenders join forces, modern firepower mixes with World War I grit in an explosive clash of eras. Cut off from their own timeline, running low on food and ammunition, and facing overwhelming odds, Evans must redefine leadership, courage, and sacrifice in a world that should not exist.

Out of Time in the Desert is a gripping, cinematic military adventure blending modern warfare, historical conflict, and time-bending suspense. Rich in authentic soldier dialogue, tactical realism, and human emotion, this novel explores what happens when the past and present collide—and how far soldiers will go to bring their men home.
