In 1943, archaeologist Lily Sampson has been sent to Trans-Jordan by the OSS, along with Gideon Weil, director of the American School of Archeology in Jerusalem. When Lily and Gideon are stranded in the Wadi Rum, and their Bedouin guide is murdered, Gideon is suspected of the crime. Then the pair learns that two oil pipelines run from Iraq through the desert to ports on the Mediterranean: one supplying the Allies, the other supplying the Nazis. Lily and Gideon's mission is to prevent oil from reaching the Nazis. And to foil a Nazi plot to kidnap and kill the eight-year-old King Faisal of Iraq. Can they clear Gideon's name, protect the Allied pipeline, sabotage the Nazi line, and rescue Faisal? Aileen G. Baron taught archaeology for 20 years at California State University, Fullerton. The Scorpion's Bite is her fourth novel and the third to feature archaeologist Lily Sampson. www.aileengbaron.com
