Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Return to the dark underbelly of Ardnakelty in the thrilling new sequel to
The Searcher.

It’s a blazing summer when two men arrive in a small village in the West of Ireland. They’re coming to get rich, but what they bring is trouble.

Waiting for them is Cal Hooper, a retired Chicago detective who moved to rural Ireland looking for some peace. He’s found it, more or less – in his relationship with local woman Lena, and the bond he’s formed with tearaway teenager Trey Reddy. As the two men circle the townland with talk of a scheme to find gold in the mountainside, Cal gets ready to do whatever it takes to protect Trey. Because one of them is no stranger: he’s Trey’s father. But Trey doesn’t want protecting. What she wants is revenge.

Crackling with tension, THE HUNTER explores what we’ll do for our loved ones, what we’ll do for revenge, and what we sacrifice when the two collide.

'A richly told tale of tangled loyalties. French ratchets up the tension in increments . . . By the end, these characters have taken on such solidity that, long after finishing it, I often catch myself wondering how they’re doing – a testament to the author’s mastery of her craft' GUARDIAN

Superb Story

A very absorbing and gripping story, superbly narrated. I could listen to it all over again, which is very unusual for me.

Fabulous Irish Crime Writing

Dialogue that sizzles with dark Irish humour enriched with outstanding narration.
A crime novel clever hidden within a western fable. Outstanding.

Irish humour is standout.

Love the Irish dialogue and their ways of looking at situations taking into account the consequences of their actions -until an outsider interferes.
