"Shy" Hunt and the tech team from McAllen Integrations thought they'd have an easy job—set up environmental systems for the brand new Hasanova Data Solutions colony, built on the abandoned ruins of a complex known as "Charybdis." There are just two problems: the colony belongs to the Iranian state, so diplomacy is strained at best, and the complex is located above a series of hidden caves that contain deadly secrets. When a bizarre ship lands on a nearby island, one of the workers is attacked by a taloned creature, and trust evaporates between the Iranians and Americans. The McAllen Integrations crew are imprisoned, accused as spies, but manage to send out a distress signal… to the Colonial Marines."
This is White's second trip into the chilling world of "Alien" after penning the acclaimed 2018 novel, "Alien: The Cold Forge." Here readers will descend into the depths of a rogue colony where evil dwells in the tunnels of an abandoned Weyland-Yutani facility in the Middle East.
A short interview with Alex White and a chapter excerpt can be found on space.com.
The book will be available on March 16 and can be pre-ordered for $16.49 at Amazon.

I'm interested in the book, it seems well written and, who knows, it could turn into a good film. The sequel to the prequels seems dead anyway. Unfortunately.
I know Ridley Scott likes the desert.
"There is nothing in the desert and no man needs nothing."
Finally something worthy in the Alienverse
