Cutting Edge

Cutting Edge by Ward Larsen
Unrated

Trey DeBolt is a young man at the crest of life. His role as a Coast Guard rescue swimmer in Alaska offers him a rewarding job and limitless adventure. Then a tragic accident alters his life: during a harrowing rescue, his helicopter goes down.

Severely injured, DeBolt awakens in a seaside cabin in Maine, thousands of miles from where the accident occurred. His lone nurse lets slip that he has been officially declared dead, lost in the crash. Back in Alaska, however, Coast Guard investigator Shannon Lund uncovers evidence that DeBolt might still be alive. Her search quickly becomes personal, but before she can intervene, chaos erupts outside a cabin in the wilds of Maine.

The nurse who has been treating DeBolt is brutally killed by military-trained assassins. DeBolt is only saved when a bizarre vision guides him to safety. Soon other images appear, impossible revelations that are unfailing in their accuracy. As he runs for his life, DeBolt discovers he has been drawn into an ultra-secret government project. The power it bestows is boundless, both a gift and a curse. Yet one thing is certain: Trey DeBolt has abilities no human has ever known.

Ward Larsen

Ward Larsen writes thrillers that feel lived in, shaped by a life spent on the frontlines of risk and precision. Born in 1961, Larsen carved out a career as a fighter pilot during Operation Desert Storm, a federal law enforcement officer, and an airline captain, experiences that would later infuse his novels with technical authenticity and high-stakes realism. His firsthand knowledge of aviation, military operations, and covert procedures gives his suspense fiction a grounded intensity that few authors can match.

In 2004, Larsen introduced readers to David Slaton, a former Mossad operative whose lethal skills and moral complexity anchor the long-running Assassin series. Across novels such as The Perfect Assassin, Assassin’s Game, and Assassin’s Mark, Slaton navigates global conspiracies, high-stakes espionage, and personal codes of justice, keeping readers on edge while exploring the psychology of those who operate in shadows. Beyond Slaton, Larsen’s Jammer Davis series leans into his aviation expertise, mixing suspense with procedural depth, while stand-alone thrillers like Deep Fake examine the collision of technology, politics, and personal survival.

A USA Today bestselling author and multiple-time Florida Book Award recipient, Larsen has earned both critical and commercial acclaim. He has also collaborated with Brad Thor on Cold Zero and is set to enter the iconic Tom Clancy universe with Tom Clancy: Rules of Engagement, extending his reach in contemporary thriller fiction.

Larsen’s writing blends cinematic pacing, precise technical detail, and morally complex characters. Every aircraft maneuver, covert mission, and international plotline carries the weight of experience, creating thrillers that feel immediate, plausible, and compelling. For readers seeking espionage, military, and action thrillers with sharp plotting and authentic stakes, Ward Larsen delivers stories that pull you into danger and refuse to let go.
