The Widow's Chase: A Chase Fulton Novel

Still reeling from the most devastating blow he had ever endured, American covert operative Chase Fulton is on the brink of ultimate ruin. With his team scattered, his life in shambles, and no end in sight to the raging storm inside of him, the former elite operator and commander of Tactical Team 21 feels the end of everything he once loved drawing nearer with every agonizing breath.

When actions and decisions from long ago step forward to confront the broken man, nothing could prepare Chase for the coming revelation and dramatic new direction destiny is determined to take him in.
Can he recover? Can he rebuild what had been and rise from the depths of despair to face the man responsible for bringing his world down around him?

A Crash in a Foreign Sea . . . British Special Boat Service . . . Unexpected Allies . . . Unimaginable Enemies

About the author

Creator of The Chase Fulton Novels series and The Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins Series, Cap Daniels is a former sailing charter captain, scuba and sailing instructor, pilot, Air Force veteran, and civil servant of the U.S. Department of Defense. Raised far from the ocean in rural East Tennessee, his early infatuation with salt water was sparked by the fascinating, and sometimes true, sea stories told by his father, a retired Navy chief petty officer. Those stories of adventure on the high seas sent Cap in search of adventure of his own, which eventually landed him on Florida’s Gulf Coast where he and his wife Melissa spend as much time as possible on, in, and under the waters of the Emerald Coast.

With a headful of larger-than-life characters and their thrilling exploits, Cap pours his love of adventure and passion for the ocean onto the pages of his action adventure series, The Chase Fulton Novels and his new series Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins.

Inspired by the likes of John D. Macdonald’s Travis McGee, Randy Wayne White’s Doc Ford, and Wayne Stinnett’s Jesse McDermitt, Cap creates thrilling tales of action and adventure set throughout the Caribbean and coastal Florida and Georgia by intertwining nautical adventure with international espionage. Cap’s Chase Fulton Novels series promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats, trying to guess what new danger or adventure lies just around the corner.

The Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins series is a spin-off starring the most controversial and intriguing character from the Chase Fulton Novels. After defecting to the United States, Anastasia "Anya" Burinkova, a former Russian SVR assassin and intelligence operative puts her lethal skill set into action against the powerful Russian Mafia. In this gritty, organized-crime thriller series, Cap Daniels takes his readers into the dark underworld of the Russian Mafia weaving actual events into fiction to leave the reader's heart pounding and their fingers itching to turn the page.

[John D. Grossmann · Rating 5 out of 5]

This story starts with something completely unexpected that changes everything. There is a Savior. An enemy that is close. Chase has a lot to deal with. A marriage. Horses and help from outside the team. There is plenty of action and excitement, and also a lot of personal stuff readers will feel. Cap Daniels is a marvelous writer. You can’t go wrong reading anything he writes. Once again unique story elements, surprises, and unexpected twists. Widow’s Chase is a great read. You won’t want to put down.

U

Your last book broke my heart, but this one restored it. If you have never read any of the series of Chase Fulton, you must start with the Opening Chase. Cap Daniels is a wonderful writer. He draws you into the lives of Chase and his team. Each story draws you in and you fall in love with the characters. They use their expertise in military tactics and love of country to defeat their enemies. Some

WOW!

As usual, Cap has knocked it out of the park! If you have been following the Chase Gordon series, this installment will not disappoint. If you are considering starting the series, take the plunge; your only regret will be not starting sooner. Now for the wait on the next book…. It would be super cool if we had stand-alone on some of the other team members as well. I would love to dig into Mongo’s history! As always, great job Mr Daniels!!!!

Return to living.

I have read every book in this series. Cap captured me almost from the first page of the first book. I have grown up with Chase and all of his men. I’ve listen to the talks that his men have given. I’ve cried when Penny died. I cried again when he met his daughter. I feel like I’m part of his family, not as tough or skilled, but it felt right, like family when I could pick up the next story. As always, im looking for the next story.

[Carl · Rating 1 out of 5]

Another mediocre read

In your utter ignorance you killed Penny at the end of the previous book for No valid reason.... And created Pogo ? Anya and Chases daughter !!! All those chapters were skipped over because of your mental
midget emotional cripple type of writing...this one is worse than the previous book.

[Scott · Rating 5 out of 5]

Words are difficult

I’m thankful that the words just come to you and not through human experience because I can’t fathom what Chase went through. I wouldn’t wish it on my enemy. I’m glad this his character won the day in the end. Another riveting book in the series. Well done. When’s the next?

Book 33 doesn’t disappoint! The Widow’s Chase is great

Book 32 made me gasp at the ending and I couldn’t wait for this one to get here.
Chase lost his heart & soul in Book 32, but he finds redemption in the unlikeliest place.. The hits start coming early and Chase gets his man. Cap, you wrote a mighty fine book.

[Mike Schmidt · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very good

That was very nice, I enjoyed this book very much. The new characters were a nice addition and I really enjoyed the humor, the different personalities were enjoyed. I liked the ending and look forward to reading more of your books. I will recommend you as an author to all the people I know.

No giveaways just another good review

Cap asked us not to let the cat out of the bag with our reviews so I’ll just say that I didn’t see this coming but another good story from the master. Great job Cap! Keep’m coming!

[Darlene · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another wonderful adventure for Chase!

These Chase Fulton stories never cease to amaze me. This one made me cry, smile,and laugh. I don't know how Cap can come up with all of the amazing things he writes about but I hope he never stops. Well done!

Well Worth the Wait & Chase

Hats off to Cap for getting better & better. Guess we’ll wait until May! The plots never get old. Each edition is like a shot of adrenaline, with compassion and patriotism.

[CATHY BARBER · Rating 5 out of 5]

The British are coming!

Once more Cap Daniels parents us with another exciting Chase Novel. Be prepared for the usual strength, speed and aggressive operators in a great action packed book. But, be ready to dry your eyes while you cheer the gang on. Great read!
