Book
The summer house / James Patterson and Brendan DuBois.
Once a luxurious southern getaway on a rustic lake, now reduced to a dilapidated crash pad, the Summer House is the grisly scene of a nighttime mass murder. Eyewitnesses point to four Army Rangers - known as the Ninja Squad - recently returned from Afghanistan. To ensure that justice is done, the Army sends Major Jeremiah Cook, a war veteran and former NYPD cop, to investigate. But the major and his elite team arrive in sweltering Georgia with no idea that their grim jobs will be made exponentially more challenging by local law enforcement, who resent the Army's intrusion and stonewall them at every turn. As Cook and his group struggle to uncover the truth behind the condemning evidence, the pieces just won't fit - and forces are rallying to make certain the damning secrets die alongside the victims in the murder house. With his own people in the cross hairs, Cook takes a desperate gamble to find answers - even if it means returning to a hell of his own worst nightmares.
