Trigger Point
Ex-special forces operative Tom Rollins is enjoying some much-needed down time in Vermont when he meets Ella and nine-year-old Kit, a mother and son in trouble. They’re being targeted by a highly organised and well-trained group and don’t know why. Tom feels obliged to help and slowly the picture becomes clear…
Kit is neurodivergent and has perfect recall. Their attackers, terrorist affiliates, believe that he has seen something which could expose their plot to launch a major chemical weapons attack somewhere in New York City. But Kit is non-verbal, so he can’t tell Tom exactly what it is he knows.
Can Tom help Kit and Ella stay one step ahead of their pursuers? And can he find out when and where the planned attack is going to happen? The clock is ticking. If he fails, a terrible new weapon will be unleashed. And the consequences could be devastating - not just for New York City, but for the entire world.

Paul Heatley
It’s hard to shake the grit of a Paul Heatley novel once you’ve stepped into his world. Stark, unsentimental, and laced with the raw nerve of noir, his stories don’t just depict violence and desperation—they breathe them. Hailing from the northeast of England, Heatley writes like a man who knows what it means to stare down hard truths. His fiction doesn’t flinch, and neither do his characters.
While he’s not a household name, Heatley has carved out a loyal following among crime fiction purists and noir aficionados—readers who crave the dark, the dirty, and the deeply human. His breakout work, The Motel Whore, set the tone early: stripped-down prose, seedy settings, and people clawing for survival. Since then, he’s built a body of work that reads like a bruised knuckle—sharp, direct, and unapologetically raw.
Tom Rollins Thrillers
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.
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.
Tom Rollins Thrillers consists of twenty books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
