Tom Rollins Thrillers · #15
Choke Hold
Tom Rollins is heading cross-country when he gets a call from his old friend, Cindy Vaughan. Cindy is searching for a missing woman, Louise. She’s found CCTV of her abduction and needs Tom’s help tracking down whoever is responsible.
Tom and Cindy start to investigate and soon realise that Louise is in deep trouble. She’s been taken by a ruthless gang who plan to use her for their own grisly entertainment. The clock is ticking and if they are to save Louise, Tom and Cindy will have to move fast. They take the fight to the enemy and uncover a sinister operation that will stop at nothing to cover its tracks.
And when the tables are turned and Tom finds himself trapped in one of the gang’s twisted games, he realises there is only one rule: kill or be killed.
The series
In a world where violence often whispers before it shouts, the Tom Rollins series prowls through backroads, seedy motels, and forgotten towns with a steady hand and a loaded gun. These thrillers aren’t about saving the world—they’re about surviving it, one bloodied mile at a time.
Read full series description
Tom Rollins doesn’t seek trouble, but he’s haunted by it. A former black ops soldier turned drifter, he moves through the underbelly of America like a ghost with a conscience—always drawn to the broken, the hunted, the ones the system left behind. Each story drops readers into a new pocket of decay and danger, where morality is blurred and justice isn’t always clean. There’s no bureaucracy to slow him down, no badge to protect him—just instinct, experience, and a deep, unshakable sense of right and wrong.
The atmosphere is thick with menace—trailer parks pulsing with tension, gas stations lit by flickering neon, rusted-out trucks hiding darker secrets. There’s a brutal elegance in the way these books unfold: spare prose, tight pacing, and characters who bleed in more ways than one. Rollins himself is no superhero. He makes mistakes. He gets hurt. But he keeps going. And that’s what makes him unforgettable.
Gritty, suspense-driven, and unafraid to get its hands dirty, this series delivers the kind of raw, emotionally-charged storytelling that crime thriller fans crave. It’s not just about what happens next—it’s about what it costs to get there.
