Former black ops agent Tom Rollins thought his CIA days were behind him—until analyst Jess Chen shows up at the casino where he works and asks for his help on an impossible mission.
A Chinese defector has stolen a USB drive containing the identities of deep-cover moles embedded throughout American intelligence. The only problem: she's being hunted by both the Chinese government and a ruthless Triad network determined to silence her before she reaches safety.
What begins as a simple extraction from the Port of Los Angeles explodes into a blood-soaked chase across the Nevada desert. With each safe house compromised and every ally suspect, Tom and Jess realize someone inside the CIA is feeding their position to the enemy.
In a white-knuckle showdown, Tom and his friends are trapped in a rundown Vegas hotel, surrounded by Chinese special forces. Tom will have to call on every one of his lethal skills if they are to survive.
Because he knows one thing - when you’re running blind, the only way out is through.
Running Blind – Book 19 in the outstanding Tom Rollins action thriller series. Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Jason Kasper and David Archer.
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.
