The storm sealed the only road off the mountain. Now no one is coming.
When a U.S. Marshal's prisoner transport slides off the ice high on Deadfall Pass, game warden Nate Boone is the first man on the scene - and the only one who reads the wreck for what it is. It didn't skid. Somebody put it there.
A once-in-a-decade blizzard slams the pass shut behind it. The radios are dead. The nearest help is forty miles and a mountain away. And somewhere in the black timber above the shuttered Elkhorn station, the transport's prisoner - a man being moved to testify, a man everyone has been taught to fear - is loose in the storm.
Nate has done this before. Twenty years of search-and-rescue, a lifetime of reading snow and weather and men. He can keep a lodge full of terrified strangers alive for thirty-six hours, until the storm breaks and the road reopens. He has to. Because his estranged sixteen-year-old daughter came up the pass to have it out with him - and now she is stranded on it too.
But the escaped man in the timber isn't the reason the survivors keep turning up dead. The killer isn't who they think - and the longer Nate watches how the search is being run, the less he trusts the one man up here wearing a badge.
Thirty-six hours. One mountain. A daughter he cannot lose again. And a predator who has done this before and never once been caught.
Nate Boone knows this range better than any man alive. Before the storm breaks, he is going to need every mile of it.
Deadfall Pass is a standalone wilderness survival thriller - a snowbound pass, a killer among the stranded, and a lawman you can't trust. Relentless, twisting, and impossible to put down.
