Cut Off (2019) By Colin Foley

 

How did a runt from an impoverished U.S. farm family come to be a highly-trained, but sensitive killer?

 

Why wasn’t he decorated?


How did he live through so many horrors of war in both overt and covert actions?


Why did he become a deserter and how was he never charged?


How did he obtain Australian citizenship, serve in that country’s army and eventually marry a beautiful, rich and clever girl?


Cut Off is about a man’s extraordinary survival skills. The reader follows him on an adventure as he undergoes hardship, danger, injury, and deprivation. Many of the passages are narrated in the brutally strong language of men at war and contain the black humour of those in constant peril.


This story is testimony to what a trained and determined man can endure and achieve.

A sensitive and insightful window into the struggles faced by so many national Servicemen. The action is fast and engrossing and the story of Orville Payne a gripping one.
— Mary Vernon, Judge, The Colin Roderick Literary Award


The training regimes and later battle scenes are totally absorbing and are realistic. His contact with Aussie “larrikinism” and eventual posting to an Aussie unit combines humour and reality in equal measure.

An action-packed tale of survival. Trapped in the brutality and the aftermath of battle until rescued by the healing power of love.
— Vivian Waring (author When Tears Ran Dry)

— Ian Dolby, author of the Firebird series
