Description: "Hell''s Gate has a little bit of something for everyone and should appeal to a wide and diverse audience. Thrilling and suspenseful, with a touch of creepy and a dash of terrifying, Hell''s Gate is a fun read with an original plot and a unique cast of characters." - The Real Book Spy on HELL''S GATE "The authors adeptly balance science and suspense, and a detailed afterword lays out how much of the story line is based in history. Michael Crichton fans will be pleased that the ending leaves room for a sequel." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) on HELL''S GATE "Coauthors Schutt and Finch are experts in the sciences, and the scenes involving the biology behind what''s really going on in the jungle-there''s a touch of horror in the mix-are fascinating." - Booklist on HELL''S GATE "Just think Indiana Jones. For that matter, this yarn evokes more than a few reminders of Stephen King, Joseph Conrad, and Bram Stoker''s Dracula. Fast-moving fun for thriller readers who enjoy a bit of horror and seeing bad guys get what''s coming to them." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on HELL''S GATE "Saying this book is hard to put down just doesn''t do it justice. That''d be like saying Oreos are hard to stop eating after just one cookie. In reality, both are nearly impossible! Hell''s Gate has a little bit of something for everyone and should appeal to a wide and diverse audience. Thrilling and suspenseful, with a touch of creepy and a dash of terrifying, Hell''s Gate is a fun read with an original plot and a unique cast of characters." - The Real Book Spy on HELL''S GATE "Schutt and Finch''s debut novel HELL''S GATE has everything I love in a book: rip-roaring action, strange-but-authentic science, and characters that pop right off the page. Here is an adventure that harkens to the glory days of H. Rider Haggard and H.G. Wells. It''s a thrill ride set in the Amazon that would challenge Indiana Jones at his best. Two warnings: Do NOT miss this debut...and be prepared to read this in one sitting. I know I sure did!" - James Rollins, New York Times bestseller of The Bone Labyrinth on HELL''S GATE "This one pushes the envelope to the edge and beyond, with tension and imagination that crackles from the first page. A terrific story, terrifically told. So take a walk on the perilous side, if you dare." - Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The 14th Colony on HELL''S GATE "Bill Schutt and J.R. Finch are two of the best adventure writers to hit the scene in a long time. They blend action and science into a read that opens the door to much, much more. My kind of book!" - Clive Cussler on HELL''S GATE "A World War II thriller with plenty of action and suspense in a most unusual setting. Just think Indiana Jones. For that matter, this yarn evokes more than a few reminders of Stephen King, Joseph Conrad, and Bram Stoker''s Dracula. If this book is ever made into a movie, and it should be, it will have plenty of spectacular visuals and gross-out scenes. 3-D would be nice. Fast-moving fun for thriller readers who enjoy a bit of horror and seeing bad guys get what''s coming to them." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on HELL''S GATE "Working within chilling scientific plausibility, this two-fisted jungle adventure swerves unexpectedly down a path of heart-pounding suspense. What emerges from the darkness will haunt you long after you put the book down." - James Cameron, director/writer/explorer on HELL''S GATE "Scientifically accurate, and chillingly real; Schutt and Finch amplify the many perils that come with any expedition into the unknown. I dashed through Hell''s Gate--cover to cover--with white-knuckle fear of what might be lurking on the next page. I''d be surprised if this thing weren''t made into the scariest movie anyone ever saw. It''s written cinematically, and it''s full of surprises, and with a story depth that makes it relatable on so many levels. Brace yourself, this is no ordinary thriller." - Darrin Lunde, Author of The Naturalist on HELL''S GATE "Hell''s Gate has everything I love in a book: rip-roaring action, strange-but-authentic science, and characters that pop right off the page.
