Description

Riverside County, California is a wasteland of sunbaked secrets and blood-soaked vendettas, where the line between justice and vengeance is as thin as a chalk outline. In the desert, the past never stays buried.

For Detective Sam Quade, the badge is both a shield and a license to steal—it lets him clean up Riverside County’s filth and take what he wants, but some stains don’t wash out.

Kyle walks out of jail, but in the desert, freedom is just a mirage. The woman he loved is gone, and the answers he needs are buried under layers of lies, dirt, and death. As he follows the trail of her disappearance, he’s pulled into a violent world of outlaw bikers, gangs, and crime families—where every step forward leads deeper into the dark.

Few men survive the game like Nicky Hill: sharp-dressed, silver-tongued, and ruthless. He built his empire by making the right moves at the right time. But now, death has come calling for him and his people. If Nicky wants to stay on top, he’ll have to remind the world why the name Hill still commands fear.

Three men. Three paths soaked in blood. One truth that ties them all together. And at the center of it all—a girl named Suzie Q, whose name is written in blood across the desert.

Brutal, unforgiving, and dripping in noir atmosphere, Desert Dirt is a gritty crime thriller about power, revenge, and the bodies left behind when the dust settles.
