Samuel W. Gailey

“Deep Winter is a beautiful and brutal debut. Put Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men in a blender with Scott Smith’s classic crime novel A Simple Plan, then watch as Gailey hits the switch and everything in this world spins dangerously out of hand. A wonderful fast-paced read.” —Urban Waite, author of The Terror of Living

“A fast paced thriller tense enough to give you paper cuts from turning the pages so quickly.” —Joe R. Lansdale, author of The Thicket

“A moving picture of a man…who becomes a moral compass.” —Publisher’s Weekly

Samuel W. Gailey was raised in a small town in northeast Pennsylvania (population 379), which serves as the setting for his debut novel, DEEP WINTER.
