About this listen

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

Spectacular. Beautifully crafted characters and full of tension... I was on edge from page one (Shelley Burr)

Masterfully written, full-bodied characters, and so much heart. This story was matched by the performance. Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.

Story and performance will make you wish the next instalment was available

I thought nothing was going to happen - there was so much character and not enough action - but every now and then she'd drop in a little spark to keep you going and it was entertaining enough to hang in.
The narrator did sound like John Wayne back from the dead but his Irish work was good.

Engaging enough

I didn’t even finish this. It felt interminable. I have loved Tana French so much so when I selected this with my precious monthly credit I was excited. Four hours into it on a long drive and the story hasn’t even moved. I wish I could still return a book as this was just boring.

Such a disappointing book from a favourite writer
