WEIRD WESTERN ADULT FANTASY HEIST

THE DESERT KEEPS HER DEAD is a weird western fantasy set in a desert frontier where water wells are created using the bones of extinct beasts.

When a death-obsessed paleontologist is pulled into a high-stakes theft by her estranged bounty hunter best friend, she joins a fractured crew—including a runaway teen aristocrat and a desert-drifting inventor—to steal the only intact specimen in the world.

As the heist’s pressure mounts, new loyalties surface and old betrayals take hold. What begins as a routine job becomes something far more dangerous: a choice between seizing the fossil’s power or destroying it for good—and with it, the fragile system keeping the desert alive.
