Explosions. Assassins. Family vendettas that span continents. In his newly released novel, The Past Always Comes Back, author Larry Patzer delivers a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller that is already positioning itself as one of the most cinematic page-turners of the year.
The Past Always Comes Back is a visceral reading experience. The novel introduces readers to Michael and Ann Johnson, a couple living a quiet life in Oregon until their world literally blows apart. A devastating explosion rips through their home, hurling them into a deadly chase orchestrated by international mercenaries. As they search for answers, one truth becomes clear: this was no random attack. It is a meticulously planned act of vengeance tied directly to Michael’s shadowy past.
Patzer’s novel delivers everything thriller readers crave explosive action, pulse-pounding suspense, and intricate layers of betrayal and revenge.

Readers don’t just witness the chaos they feel it, experiencing the story through the eyes of two ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances.
“With this book, I wanted to capture that razor-thin line between survival and destruction,” says Patzer. “It’s not just about explosions and chase scenes it’s about how past decisions and hidden lives can erupt when you least expect them.”
Now available, The Past Always Comes Back is a must-read for fans of Tom Clancy, Vince Flynn, and Lee Child. It’s the kind of thriller that leaves readers breathless and haunted by one lingering question: If your past came for you, could you survive?
