If you like Clancy, you’ll like W.E.B. Griffin...
He has several series...
“Brotherhood of War”
“Badge of Honor”
and more......
Also try Carl Hiassen - who has a sort of Tom Wolfe approach to Florida culture and corrupt politics.
W.E.B. Griffin
Unfortunately, as the series progress and he brings in secondary writers, the quality decreases. But early on in each of the series — not to be beaten.
