Interesting main character. I’m looking forward to reading the next book.
Great introduction to the series. Leaves you wanting more!
This book was an enjoyable fiction read. It kept me interested and had a good story line, believable or not.
Great read
Loved this with a lot of twists and turns to try and keep up with
Writing is grammatically correct. That’s about the only good thing I can say. Storyline very predictable and mostly unbelievable. Will not go to book 2. I did finish this one although not sure why.
Didn’t finish it. Really dumb characters and plot. Not believable
Really, really, good!
It starts with action and tragedy, then a mysterious opportunity. A young man is wined and dined, his past revealed to him, and he is made an offer to join a covert organization, with the opportunity to serve his country and get rich. Oh, he will have to kill people too.
It takes place in New York, Florida, Virginia, Georgia, Cuba and a few other places in the Caribbean.
In the book is flying (including a P51), sailing, scuba diving; horse racing…it is just packed with interesting and exciting action.
Oh yes, there is love too. Not too much, just enough as the young good guy falls in in love with the enemy and it could get him killed. As a matter of fact, many things could get him killed.
If you like an action-packed, tightly, wrapped story, then this is s must-read.
The first book in a series.
Strongly recommend.
I wish they were all this good.
Review by Mike Slavin author of award-winning Kill Crime (action-packed thriller on Amazon to buy or KU. As of this writing 94% 5 and 4-star reviews on Amazon with 350+ reviews)
This first book in the Chase series is a great and edge of your seat read. Cap Daniels has quickly established himself as go-to author for high quality excitement with a protagonist and cast of characters that will keep you coming back for more!
Great Read!
Definitely recommended.
Every book Cap Daniels writes is amazing. From the first page of his first book to the last page of his last book is entertaining and I truly believe one of the best written books of any I’ve read, bar none. His story line is completely different from any of the other writers in his genre. You won’t be disappointed. I have the feeling that the author has lived most of his fictional tales.
Page turner! Couldn’t put it down! Great story – I immediately ordered the next two books in the series Great author, great stories, can’t wait for more books from Cap Daniels.
Simply the best spy/murder mystery/adventure I’ve ever read! The best characterizations, plot, action, pacing, romance and drama possible and all done with the best dry humor as well. Humor in a mystery book, who knew. I can’t say enough good things about this book for readers of any genre.
Most highly recommended!
Just not my cup of tea – I’ve read and enjoyed unrealistic action books before, but this one just fell flat for me in parts. Not as steamy as some I’ve read – I just couldn’t get into the female protagonist’s personality.
Maybe guys would like this better – I did enjoy the old guys!!
exceptional first read
What a great start to an already fascinating series! This novel has everything an action adventure thriller should: beautiful people doing amazing things in incredible parts of the world for all the right reason…it would appear. Expect to be unable to put it down and plan to buy book 2 immediately upon finishing this one.
This book grabbed me from the beginning. It is a spy thriller, sort of. Things that happen that the normal person never even thinks about. Daniels keeps the action going. There are a few skips and leaps but they get straightened out before the end of the book. If you like Travis McGee, Jesse McDermitt and James Bond you’ll like Chase Fulton.
Good book! Next book starts right where this one leaves off so the ending isn’t really.
Hard to put down, plenty of surprises
