Chasing the Son: The Green Berets

By Bob Mayer

**HE NEVER KNEW HE HAD A SON. NOW THAT SON IS RUNNING FOR HIS LIFE.**

Horace Chase has faced Taliban fighters, Russian mobsters, and his own demons. But nothing prepared him for the truth that shatters his world: he's a father. And the son he never knew exists is wanted dead by one of Charleston's most powerful families.

Harry Brannigan survived four years at South Carolina's brutal Military Institute only to witness a tragedy that made him a target. Now he's disappeared, and the only person who might be able to find him is the Green Beret father who didn't know he existed-a man haunted by his own ghosts and barely holding his life together.

**From NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Bob Mayer comes the explosive third thriller in the Horace Chase series-where family secrets, Southern power, and military justice collide.**

Charleston's elite don't forgive. They don't forget. And they never let outsiders win. When the grandson of the city's most influential matriarch dies under suspicious circumstances at the Military Institute, she wants blood for blood-the ancient law of retribution. Harry Brannigan is her target. And she has the money, connections, and ruthlessness to hunt him to the ends of the earth.

But she didn't count on Chase.

Pulled into a conspiracy that reaches from Hilton Head's gated communities to Charleston's historic mansions, Chase must navigate a world of old money, older grudges, and a secret society that's been protecting its own for generations. With a former Ranger turned mercenary on Harry's trail and time running out, Chase faces an impossible mission: find a son who doesn't know him, uncover the truth about what really happened that night at the Institute, and survive the wrath of those who believe they're above the law.

The deeper Chase digs, the more he discovers that nothing is what it seems-not the accident at the Institute, not his own past, and not the mother of his son who kept this secret for nearly two decades.
