He witnessed corrupt power first-hand. Now they want him gone.
Ex-CIA Deputy Director Chris Collins is ready to walk away from the intelligence game forever. Then, on a cold night in Washington, DC, he spots what should be unthinkable: a powerful political figure in a secret meeting with a known terrorist.
Within hours, Collins is framed for a violent crime and forced to flee the country he has sworn to defend. Hunted without CIA backup, he must stay one step ahead of his enemies while unraveling a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power.
Collins built his reputation on being smart, lethal, and devoted to the cause, exactly the kind of man this network wants dead. With his options gone, he can depend on only two people in the entire world, one of them a formidable and mysterious female agent whose involvement ties his survival to hers.
In the midst of a personal crisis, Collins is forced into a global reckoning to clear his name, defend his country, and bring some of the world’s most powerful people to justice.
Capitol Break is a fast, high-octane CIA action thriller packed with non-stop momentum, globe-trotting danger, and constant escalation. Perfect for readers who love on-the-run heroes, corrupt power plays, and thrillers that don’t slow down.
This edition also includes a free bonus novella. Rogue Enemy - the explosive prequel to the Chris Collins CIA Thriller series. A fast-paced, globe-spanning thriller for readers who enjoy covert missions, moral pressure points, and the origins of a hero who refuses to look away.

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!
