If you’re not reading thrillers by Ward Larsen, you are missing out on one of the best writers in the genre and one of my favorite authors. Perfect Assassin - the first in Larsen’s David Slaton series - introduced us to this Kidon assassin and protagonist and quickly became an all time favorite read on my book shelf. Now, 20 years later, Dark Vector has that same “can’t put this book down” feel as Tru Miller is introduced as a character that you will be holding your breath as you pine for his success.
In Dark Vector, a Russian pilot has decided to fly the advanced fighter that he has been developing to a U.S. base and seek asylum there. But when the plane has troubles enroute, Tru Miller, a rookie CIA paramilitary agent, is sent to assist. Meanwhile, Slaton, now the head of the CIA’s Special Activities Group, and the White House scheme how to help Miller achieve success while not starting a global conflict.
Dark Vector is a must read and will probably be one of your favorite reads of 2025. Personally, I can’t wait to read the next Ward Larsen Tru Miller thriller.
