Beschreibung
A fugitive from justice, an impossible mission, and a taste for murder

Nail-biting? You'll chew your fingers off!

Hiding away in a remote corner of Papua New Guinea, odd jobbing as a photographer and trek guide, ex-mountaineer Peter Blake stays under the radar. A wise move, given he's wanted by the FBI.

But when a shady character who "deals in information" approaches him, flanked by a couple of heavies, Peter's luck begins to wane. Amos Sanford knows about his dodgy past as an environmental activist and has found a way to use it.

Under threat of being handed over to the bureau, Peter agrees to help a team head into the remote Star Mountains range to retrieve part of a fallen satellite containing valuable data.

But the motley crew of techies and thugs are ill-prepared for the dangerous terrain. And anything but united. Worse, they are not the only people on the mountain, seeking the prize.

It seems like an impossible mission. And that's just the staying alive part. What will befall Peter when man and nature throw all they have against him?

This edge-of-your-seat page turner is written by world-renowned Professor of Anthropology, Riall Nolan. His years spent in far-flung corners of the world studying man in his habitat have paid dividends as the author has turned his capable mind to writing fiction. You will not find a more exciting read than MURDER MOUNTAIN, unless of course you pick up one of his forthcoming releases!

You may have read action thrillers by Lee Child, Mark Dawson, and Wilbur Smith. You may have read mountaineering books like BEYOND POSSIBLE, TOUCHING THE VOID, THE WHITE SPIDER, or INTO THIN AIR. When these two genres collide, you have Riall Nolan's MURDER MOUNTAIN. Prepare to be seriously entertained!

Über den Autor
Riall Nolan grew up in upstate New York, and joined the Peace Corps after graduating from college. He got sent to Senegal, in West Africa, an experience from which he has never fully recovered.While there he began to notice that many development projects didn't work very well, largely because outside experts lacked basic cultural understanding of local communities. That's when he decided to become an anthropologist.He headed to the University of Sussex where he obtained a doctorate, and began working around the world as a development planner. He spent nearly twenty years overseas, in places like Papua New Guinea, Senegal, Tunisia and Sri Lanka. When he returned to the US at long last, he became a university administrator in charge of international education at several large research universities. His goal was simple: get as many young Americans out of the country as possible, by any means necessary.In 2010, he finally moved back into the ranks of the faculty, where he taught courses in development anthropology, cross-cultural adaptation, and the application of anthropology to global grand challenges. Before retiring in 2020, he split his time between Purdue University in Indiana and the University of Cambridge in the UK.He is the author of eight academic books on anthropology and numerous articles. He has also published a guide to mountaineering in Papua New Guinea. Now his focus is on adventure novels.Today, he lives with his wife Christine in a small university town, venturing forth as often as possible on exciting trips to faraway places. Aside from writing gripping fiction, he writes, hikes, makes furniture and tries to fix the house.
