Welcome
I’m Patrick Larkin, a bestselling novelist specializing in high-stakes military, historical, and espionage thrillers.
For more than three decades, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with masters like Larry Bond (Red Phoenix, Vortex, Cauldron, etc.) and Dale Brown (Arctic Storm Rising and many others). I’ve also written my own solo novel, The Tribune, and contributed to Robert Ludlum’s Covert-One series.
My stories blend gripping plots with realistic geopolitical insight and intense action. Whether you enjoy techno-thrillers, historical mysteries, or modern espionage, I hope you’ll find something here that keeps you turning the pages late into the night.
