He thought leaving the CIA would put the danger behind him. He was wrong.
After years in intelligence work, Chris Collins steps into the private security world believing it will give him more control and fewer enemies. Instead, a single job draws him into the orbit of a vicious warlord who operates without limits and answers to no one.
What begins as a professional risk quickly becomes personal. Collins learns that former military operatives and their families are being targeted, and the violence is escalating. No one is off limits, and the window to stop the attacks is closing fast.
Forced back into a world of covert warfare and brutal decisions, Collins must move faster than an enemy driven by revenge and willing to burn everything in its path. Survival means anticipating the next strike before it happens and accepting that walking away is no longer an option.
Beirut Hurt is a hard-hitting CIA action thriller built on international danger, high-risk missions, and escalating personal stakes. Ideal for readers who enjoy uncompromising espionage, ruthless adversaries, and fast-moving thrillers with real consequences.

I'm John Hopton. I'm from Yorkshire, UK, and now living in Japan. I write the kind of books I love to read: fast-paced thrillers that take readers on an international escapade.
I have had lots of wonderful feedback from readers on previous books, and I really appreciate all of it. Along with international thrillers, I also wrote a travelogue. Travelling to places like India, the Middle East, Zambia, East Asia, and Brazil has given me plenty of first-hand experience to work into my novels.
Along with my long-running Chris Collins CIA Thriller series, I am embarking on a new project: Tropical Airbourne Adventures starring Nora "Sierra" Byrd - a misanthropic pilot with a decorated Air Force career who now just wants peace and quiet to fix up her planes. But trouble always seems to find her. Serious trouble...
I look forward to our literary travels together!
