City of the Sun is a novel by Juliana Maio,[1] published by Greenleaf Book Group[2] in March 2014. The novel, which blends historical fiction[3] with spy fiction and romantic fiction, is set in Cairo, Egypt in 1941 during the North Africa Campaign of World War II.[4] Though a work of fiction, it centers around true historical events and "connects the root of much of today's turmoil in the Middle East with the Axis-Allied struggle for control of the Suez Canal and the early history of the Muslim Brotherhood."[5]

The author was born to a Jewish family in Heliopolis, a suburb of Cairo. Her family was expelled in 1956 during the Suez Crisis, when she was three years old.[6] Maio grew up and was educated in Paris, France[7] before her family emigrated to the United States.[8]
