Car bombs rip through a Moscow marketplace outside Ruland Nash's hotel. A disgraced investigative journalist-the elite golfer is now reduced to reviewing golf courses-Ruland sees the bombing as his shot at redemption. Clues left by a sinister Albanian with a chinstrap beard pull him into the heart of a deadly global conspiracy.
Ruland can disarm you with a smile-or a weaponized golf shot. Just ask the gunman with the shattered orbital bone. As the chase takes him from Russia to Morocco, Spain, and Italy, Ruland dodges assassins, navigates shady intelligence operatives, and teams up with Monty Havel, a haunted former British commando. Together, they uncover a covert network linking car theft rings to terrorist attacks, with the fingerprints of a rogue CIA faction all over it.
As the body count climbs and the truth turns explosive, Ruland realizes the story he was chasing is now chasing him-dragging those he loves into the crosshairs.
Inspired by real threats faced by journalists today, Blowback is a high-octane thriller about power, truth, and the risks of digging too deep.
