"Malfi, like the great documentarians, really makes us feel as though we are there."
--Booklist

"Malfi delivers a nearly straightforward adventure story of man against the elements with man being the most dangerous element of all."
--Publishers Weekly

After the death of his ex-wife, successful sculptor Tim Overleigh trades in his lucrative career for the world of extreme sports, but when a caving accident nearly ends his life, Tim falls into a self-destructive depression. On the cusp of madness, an old friend convinces him to join a team of men climbing the Godesh Ridge in Nepal. When this journey of mythical and spiritual discovery rapidly turns deadly as the climbers fall victim to a murderer within their group, the remaining survivors begin to wonder if any of them will escape the mountains alive.


Also: Brand new short story, "Knocking," up at HorrorWorld!

Happy to announce that Shamrock Alley has won a silver medal (2nd place) in the 2010 Independent Publisher Book Awards in the thriller/suspense/ mystery category!

Check out the complete list of winners here!

"This is a bottom-of-the-ninth, two-out, grand slam home run of a book...Shamrock Alley is a novel that demands to be read and Malfi is an author to whom attention must be paid."
--Lorenzo Carcaterra, author of Sleepers and Chasers

"This is a gripping thriller, similar to the novels of Gerald Petievich, the Secret Service agent turned author, but with more emotional and moral depth. The author's previous books have garnered him acclaim and a small but devoted audience; this one could easily lift him into the mainstream."
--David Pitt, Booklist

"Snow is a throw back to some of the best horror writing of the late 70's and early 80's....it will call to mind some of the work by the best two horror writers of that era, Stephen King and Peter Straub....a must read for every lover of horror fiction."
--Horror World

"A genuine page turner that grabs you from the very first word and doesn't stop cranking until the very last."
--Dave Dreher, House of Horrors


"Malfi's handle of the craft is rock-solid..."
--Shroud Magazine



When a brutal snowstorm shut down all the flights in and out of Chicago, Todd Curry and a few other stranded passengers rented a Jeep to drive the rest of the way to their destinations. But along a forested, isolated road, they picked up a disoriented man wandering through the snow. His car wouldn't start and his daughter had vanished. Strangest of all were the mysterious slashes cut into the back of the man's coat, straight down to the flesh...

When they arrived in the nearest town it seemed deserted. Cars sat in the streets with their doors open. Fires burned unattended. But Todd and the rest of the travelers will soon learn the town is far from deserted, for they're being watched...and hunted. Soon they will discover the inhuman horrors that await them in the SNOW.
