Hunting Time by Jeffery Deaver
5.0
Awesome.
I was very excited to get an advance reader's copy of this book and, as usual, [a:Jeffery Deaver|1612|Jeffery Deaver|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1305944481p2/1612.jpg] did not disappoint! [b:Hunting Time|60621123|Hunting Time|Jeffery Deaver|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1652287737l/60621123._SY75_.jpg|95555571] is being released on November 22--preorder it now.
The main character, and a fabulous reoccurring one, Colter Shaw is the product of a survivalist family and an expert tracker who makes a living as a “reward seeker.” In essence, he travels the country to help police solve crimes and to locate missing people. In this instance, in addition to finding a mother and daughter, he is tasked with keeping them safe from a highly skilled and emotionally charged ex-husband who was just released from prison and along with hired killers is actively stalking them.
This is a high-stakes, life-and-death chess match between multiple individuals, each with the skills and abilities to outwit the others. And, in quintessential Deaver style, full of twists and turns. I also enjoyed the ending, which is the place where many otherwise good books lose me.
Highly recommended--get it, read it. You will thank me.
