A pretty much flawless thriller, HUNTED works on every level imaginable. Terrific characters are subtly and mercilessly pushed along by a plot as propulsive as it is constantly surprising. * Lee Child *
A rip-roaring, bang-up-to-date political thriller that grabs you from the first pages and never lets go. Twists you won't see coming, nail-biting suspense and finely drawn characters that will linger long after reading. Unmissable * Steve Cavanagh *
If you're looking for a kick-ass, pedal-to-the-metal thriller you need HUNTED by the supremely talented Abir Mukherjee * Mark Billingham *
Tense, twisty and full of heartstoppingly real characters, Hunted will keep you guessing until the very end * Ruth Ware *
A masterclass in intelligent suspense fiction. Hunted is an absolute banger * Mick Herron *
