Crime Fiction

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.
