About this title

Synopsis

DEADFALL

Seven killers rode into Tombstone to bury a lawman. They built a flawless trap. They caught the wrong man.

Deputy Marshal Eldridge Sample came to the Arizona Territory silver camp to settle a routine cattle fraud case. He gets a street war instead. When a battered drifter named Wade Gruber stumbles into the Oriental Saloon stripped of his cash and his silver-belly Stetson, he delivers a fatal warning. Foster Dolan and a six-man kill squad are riding for Tombstone at dawn. Their objective: put Sample in the alkali dirt.

Dolan possesses military discipline, a lever-action Winchester, and the numbers to lock down the commercial grid. He expects a panicked target. He expects a quick execution in the morning sun.

Sample refuses the invitation.

Outgunned and cut off from the local sheriff, the veteran lawman abandons the main avenue. He takes to the blind alleys, the unfinished framing, and the dark livery stables. He turns Dolan's perfect ambush into a brutal, close-quarters guerrilla fight. Sample must dismantle the outlaw crew piece by piece, relying on geometry, exhaustion, and the heavy lead of his Colt .45. But the mathematics of survival fracture when Gruber decides to step back into the crossfire to settle his own score.

Set in 1879 Tombstone-before the Earps arrived and the legends took hold-Deadfall is a gritty, action-packed historical Western thriller. Blending sharp, hard-boiled tension with authentic frontier justice, this page-turner delivers relentless suspense, tactical gunfights, and a gripping tale of survival in the unforgiving American West.
