Jacob Green’s second novel, Before the Chips Fell, arrives December 2026. A new teaser references “the great Reno heist” and a mysterious group called the Green Felt, hinting at a casino crime story blending historical fiction, conspiracy and the same world as The Railrunner.

The Railrunner by Jacob Green takes readers beneath the surface of the American railroad system and into a hidden world of loyalty, violence, family secrets, and inherited power. Here’s why this Reno-set crime noir stands apart.
