The Second Son: A Thriller (Chase Burke Book 1)
✨ Editor’s Crush — Reasons You’ll Love ItThe Second Son hooks you with a hero who’s equal parts wounded and lethal: Chase Burke, a former soldier who’s traded combat zones for a quiet life as a sommelier—until his intelligence-analyst brother dies in a covert op, labeled a traitor, and the congresswoman he secretly loves is nearly killed in a brutal ambush at his restaurant. Forced back into the shadow world he thought he’d left behind, Chase teams up with NYPD detective Alice Doyle, a single mom with her own scars, to dig into a global criminal syndicate whose reach runs from New York streets to the highest levels of power, all while his mother’s memory is slipping away and the past refuses to stay buried. Co-written by thriller heavyweights Simon Gervais and Ryan Steck, this is that rare spy novel that’s both “pulse-pounding” and emotional: explosive twists, elite mercenaries, conspiracies that threaten more than one family name, but also loyalty, grief, and the question of how far you’ll go for the people you love. If you’re into Brad Thor / Jack Carr–style action with a more soulful core, and you love the promise of a brand-new series hero you can follow for years, Chase Burke is absolutely worth meeting in The Second Son.
