Nailbiter from the very inception of this latest book by Iris Johansen. Anxiety rides high and there’s no way to avoid getting hooked into this crime novel by this inimitable author. Don’t fret over references to past characters or cases. In ON THE HUNT you will be totally enmeshed in tailing and tracking down a diabolical killer who truly has no conscience.
The tracking includes some of the best two and four-legged characters. And needless to say not everyone is going to get along. Working as a team takes a great deal of effort and trust. Kira has it in spades with her highly-trained companion Mack.
There are people who are intrinsically dark and extremely dangerous. Joseph Taylor is a prime example of that. He has Harlan in his sights along with anyone near and dear, which includes Harlan’s niece, Fiona, and now Kira. Harlan and Taylor have a violent history. Taylor killed Fiona’s dad. Using every means available to him, Harlan has been diligent in keeping those close safe. But Taylor is now enlarging the circuit of possible targets. That now includes Kira’s world.
I’m a big follower of Iris Johansen and ON THE HUNT is filled with just the right amount of tension and angst. Quite a bit of creative implausibility thrown in for good measure. Some situations belie credibility but make for a good crime suspense story. Suspend disbelief and join Iris Johansen ON THE HUNT.
In many instances, the Hunter becomes the quarry which makes this story an interesting case of cat and mouse. Each understands that they need to be top of their game in order to come out the winner. Kira and Harlan are quite a challenge once they team up against the man who is behind evil. It is very evident that Taylor has no conscience, scruples or principles. But Kira, Harlan and their team do. Just what will make them possibly cross that line if anything? Pay careful attention, Iris Johansen leaves no rock unturned. Each character is truly larger than life, including the four-legged ones.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen introduces a bold new heroine—and her search-and-rescue dog—as Kira Drake begins an international search for an elusive killer.
Kira Drake has come to Paris with her highly trained Golden Retriever, Mack, to investigate the horrific bombing of a museum in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. What she doesn’t know is that one powerful man has a special reason to find the person responsible.
Jack Harlan has all the money in the world, but it can’t bring his brother back. His sibling was murdered during the theft of a scientific discovery that could have made the world a better place. Now, after a four-year search, Harlan learns that this bombing was the work of the same twisted man.
Kira and her dog are in demand from law enforcement agencies all over the world, but Harlan convinces her to continue the investigation for his own purposes, wherever it may lead. So against her better judgment, Kira finds herself on the hunt, placing her trust in Harlan. For what she hopes is justice. When what he may be seeking is vengeance.
