Synopsis

"A beautifully crafted and beguiling novel, full of sharp, searching sensibility and sentiment." - IndieReader

Dive into the heart of a war-torn land where beauty and brutality collide in Sketches from the Periphery, a stunning debut novel by MP Summers. Set against the volatile backdrop of Darfur in 2005, this gripping tale follows Alexander Barr, a young American contractor thrust into the chaos of the African Union Peacekeeping Mission.

From the dusty streets of El Fasher to the shadowed ridges of the Wana Hills, Summers paints a vivid portrait of a region pulsing with life and conflict. Follow Alex as his path intersects with Henri, a ruthlessly efficient contractor, and Cassandra, a fearless journalist whose pursuit of truth might cost her everything. Together, they navigate a landscape where ancient mountains loom over blood-soaked sands, and hope flickers amid despair.

This isn’t just a story—it’s an experience. With lyrical prose and unflinching honesty, Sketches from the Periphery explores the edges of humanity: where curiosity can be a curse, where survival demands sacrifice, and where the echoes of war reverberate long after the silence falls. Perfect for fans of historical fiction, war narratives, and tales of the human spirit, this book will linger in your mind like dust on the wind.
