Decker was a specialized hunter for a CIA Shadow Organization, working deep undercover to track down and capture ruthless international mercenaries and fugitives. Then a daring mission takes a lethal turn, leaving innocents dead in its wake, and Ethan’s wife a prime target of a ruthless assassin. To save her, and because he can no longer justify his actions, Ethan exiles himself to a remote … desert in New Mexico, a prisoner of his own guilt and grief.
Then one searing day, a former member of Decker’s covert team arrives at his door, shepherding two children. She entrusts them to his protection and leaves without explanation.
Suddenly, the race is on to reach his ex-wife before the deadly assassin finds her, and to unlock the mystery behind the two children—who have become pawns in a dark conspiracy so evil that even this former spy cannot imagine the peril that lies directly in his path.
This is the first full-length book in the BLIND RUN series.

I read Blind Run before its reissue, and always meant to leave a review but life and procrastination got in the way. So when I heard Ms. Lewin had reissued the book it was a perfect reminder to take care of unfinished business. One of the trademarks of a great read is that you remember the plot and characters for years after. And that is the case of Blind Run. I recently left another review of Lawrence Sanders, First Deadly Sin even though it had been years. But if a story stays with you readers need to know it’s that good.
Blind Run has all the elements of a page turner as tragic protagonist Ethan Decker comes out of seclusion, join forces with a woman he still loves but has sent away to protect, and join forces again an unlikely hero, and one I didn’t see coming. I love that she takes the reader from New Mexico into the Pacific Northwest with apt descriptions and well-researched data. I felt like I’d been traveling after I read Blind run. Moreover I’d participated in an adventure.

I am only 1/2 way thru but I can only imagine it even getting better. The characters are believable and the plot unique. A real page turner.
Far fetched scenario, but wth a lot of action and suspense. Two children are dropped on Ethan’s door, and he must flee an evil organization with the children. Eventually, Ethan goes on the offensive to ensure the kids safety.
I thought this was a very good book. It was full of twists and turns and had very likable characters (along with some characters you hated). It was also smartly written and kept me wanting more.
