Publisher's Synopsis
What if the perfect swing wasn't just about golf, it was about survival?
In 'FORE'-Warned, A.J. Dailey serves up a masterstroke of suspense, blending sports, conspiracy, and high-stakes danger in this unputdownable thriller. Jack Proctor, a quiet young man with a mysterious past, shocks the world by winning both the U.S. Open and British Open as an amateur. But just as his legend begins, he vanishes without a trace.
Two decades later, investigative reporter Jim Carraige finally lands the interview of a lifetime with the elusive champion. What unfolds is a jaw-dropping revelation, a half-million dollar bet placed in secret, a mob-run casino in Las Vegas, a multi-million dollar payout... and a deadly contract placed on Jack's life to keep him from ever collecting.
Driven into hiding, Jack builds a new life in the shadows while the criminal underworld hunts him down. But when the Godfather who put the hit on him dies, Jack steps forward-only to discover that some vendettas don't die... they pass to the next generation.
Spanning continents, generations, and golf courses turned battlegrounds, 'FORE'-Warned is a gripping story of calculated risk, quiet resilience, and one man's quest to win against impossible odds, on and off the green.
