Return of the Black Flag

The Stryker's were never fragile people.Their blood carried old stories-Highland fighters, sea raiders, Carolina patriots, stubborn men and harder women who learned that survival was not measured by the size of the blow, but by whether one stood after it landed.From Angus Stryker, who crossed the Atlantic with little more than a name, a temper, and a deep mistrust of distant authority, to the descendants who rode the lowcountry shadows with Francis Marion during the Revolution, the family inheritance was always the same:The Stryker's were protectors when the innocent needed shielding.Predators when the guilty needed hunting.Chance Stryker was raised on those stories. Not as folklore. As instruction.Now that inheritance has become a battlefield.After uncovering Soviet-era dossiers, Iranian assets, and evidence of a decades-long destabilization campaign operating inside America, Chance follows a hostile signal to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In the shadow of the State Capitol, every street is a firing lane, every bridge an escape route, every camera a witness, and every civilian a complication.The target is close.The trap is closer.What begins as a hunt for the architect of an operation on American soil becomes something far more personal. The enemy knows the Stryker name. They know the family history. They know the old bloodlines, the old debts, and the old wars that never truly ended.And now they are coming for everyone Chance loves.But the men behind the operation have made one fatal mistake.They believe the Stryker line can be broken.They are about to learn that some families do not retreat from war.They inherit it.
