REVIEW
THE HUNTER is a captivating novel that is full of mystery and intrigue. Tana French’s writing and plotting are seamless. The story is creative, poignant, and masterful.
The characters, especially Trey and Cal, are unique and interesting. The actions of village residents, along with its beautiful verdant landscape, come to life on the pages. Despite the abundance of characters, it is easy to keep track of everyone.
The book's theme revolves around revenge and the lengths we go to for our loved ones. The message of the book is profound and thought-provoking. You should read it!
Thanks to Netgalley for an advance reading copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
