Chased: Alone, Black, and Undercover

What happens when the hunter becomes the hunted?

Chased: Alone, Black and Undercover shares an unvarnished examination of a Black, idealistic cop betrayed by White superiors and the institutional reputations he burnished but whose judgement failed when Chase needed them the most.

Cunning, funny, engaging, destructive ... Billy Chase was all those things. He was a Black police officer who went where no undercover cop had gone before, infiltrating a faction of the Gambino Crime Family in Connecticut. And that was just one piece to a short, dizzying law enforcement career behind a life of aliases and infiltration.

His career became a curse. Death threats; a disconnection with his own identity forced him to retire in his early 30s after plunging himself into the depths of the 1980s crack cocaine epidemic. The life haunted him. Relationships suffered. And in the end, he took his own life, a bullet in his brain, after attempting to take the life of his former fiancée he ambushed as she exited work.

I feel like I was a government experiment, a test tube in a lab, a secret weapon never before launched.-Billy Chase
