Publisher Description

It was supposed to be an escape from their daily lives.

Deep in the isolated Northwest Territories, four friends are on the trip of a lifetime. Dropped by helicopter into the remote Canadian wilderness, Hutch, Terry, Phil, and David are looking to escape the events of a tumultuous year for two weeks of hunting, fishing, and camping.

Now they just hope they escape alive.

Armed only with a bow and arrow and the basics for survival, they've chosen a place far from civilization, a retreat from their turbulent lives. But they quickly discover that another group has targeted the remote region and the secluded hamlet of Fiddler Falls for a more menacing purpose: to field-test the ultimate weapon.

Will they be able to beat the clock and save an innocent town from utter eradication?

With more than a week before the helicopter rendezvous and no satellite phone, they must risk everything to help the townspeople who are being held hostage and terrorized. And with any luck, they might just survive themselves.

Praise for Deadfall:

“What if Mad Max, Rambo, and the Wild Bunch showed up—all packing Star Wars-like weapons—in a small Canadian town? You’d have the thrilling adventure novel Deadfall. Robert Liparulo reminds us that small-town life is still the scariest, and man’s inhumanity to man is still The Most Dangerous Game.” —Katherine Neville, New York Times bestselling author of The Eight

“Inventive, suspenseful, and highly entertaining. An engrossing and imaginative tale that sticks in your brain and makes you wonder about its real possibilities. Robert Liparulo is a storyteller, pure and simple.” —Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Alexandria Link

“High-octane thrills are Robert Liparulo’s specialty, and boy does he deliver in this ultimate tale of survival.” —Tess Gerritsen, author of The Bone Garden

Deadfall is a brilliantly crafted thriller with a terrifying premise and flawless execution. I loved it.” —Michael Palmer, author of The Fifth Vial

"I really liked this story and the way it was written was brilliant. Liparulo has no problem killing off a character that he has taken time to build up. This is one those rare writing skills that can actually add an extra zinger to the story as it unfolds. Another neat trick that he employs is that not everything pops up roses. This also adds another extra zesty pop to the whole kitty. Most writers will have it all pretty and everything falling into a certain order. Liparulo does not play that game and this reader appreciates that. Full of action, some of it a bit predictable, this is one hot read and a book you should not miss if it looks interesting to you."

    " This book was great. Of course I love everything Liparulo's written. He just has a way of creating a really complex, interesting story. He also kills off characters randomly, which is an interesting strategy, as you never know if a main character is going to make it to the end of the novel. Highly recommended to anyone who likes thrillers or suspense. "

    " This was an awesome book. It had you engrossed with the charm of wilderness life and on the edge of your seat with all the action. There were characters you rooted for thru the entire book and those you despised. I was totally impressed with the work done by Robert Liparulo in this book. A definite must read! "

    " This book caught me by surprise on my library shelf. What brought it to my attention was the way the title was printed on the book. I thought at first it was going to be a Zombie Thriller and started to read it. After the first couple of chapters I realized it wasn't but still was intrigued. I then had to check it out still. It took me a week to read but only because I came to parts where my emotions got to me. It's a book that you don't want to put down unless you get really really into the book and relate to the characters. I recommend this book to anyone. "
