The Hunted is probably one of my favourite reads of 2020!
If you love movies like Wrong Turn & The Hills Have Eyes, this book is for you!!
It will definitely make you avoid the backroads for the rest of your life.

Where does the adventure end . . .
and the nightmare begin?

The Hunted is a fast paced thriller that pulls you in from the start & keeps you on the edge of your seat!!

The story told from multiple perspectives, Frank & his estranged granddaughter, Allie, who is staying with him. Simon & Maggie, who meet on Simons gap year road trip to find ‘the real Australia’.

There is a slight timeline jump between the events that set everything into motion and the now, as Frank and a handful of unsuspecting customers are thrust into a life-or-death standoff.

The Hunted is one wild, blood soaked ride! It is well written & addictive!! I could have easily binge read it in one sitting!!
I highly recommend this books to lovers of horrors, thrillers & gore!

I received this book in exchange for an honest review, this has in no way affected my thoughts or opinions . Thank you to the author, Gabriel Bergmoser, and the publisher, Harper Collins, for this opportunity

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide - an electrifying, heartpounding, truly unputdownable thriller - a bestselling debut from talented newcomer, Gabriel Bergmoser. 'A truly terrifying, breathlessly exciting novel. It gut punches you in the first few pages and doesn't let you recover until the final, thrilling climax. An extraordinary book.' M W Craven 'An original and high-octane read, it makes Deliverance look like Picnic at Hanging Rock.' The Times/Sunday Times Crime Club Frank is a service station owner on a little-used highway who just wants a quiet life. His granddaughter has been sent to stay with him to fix her attitude, but they don't talk a lot. When a badly injured young woman arrives at Frank's service station with several cars in pursuit, Frank and a handful of unsuspecting customers are thrust into a life-or-death standoff. But who are this group of men and women who will go to any lengths for revenge? And what do they want? Other than no survivors ...? A ferociously fast-paced, filmic, visceral, tense and utterly electric novel, unlike anything you've read before. Set on a lonely, deserted highway, deep in the Australian badlands, The Hunted is white-knuckle suspense matched to the fast-paced adrenaline of a Jack Reacher novel and the creeping menace of Wake in Fright. This is unmissable reading. 'This slice of outback noir is .... at once exhilarating, gleefully vicious and totally, race-to-the-finish-line unputdownable' Observer 'An audacious walk on the wildest side of outback noir ... a vivid thriller.' Sydney Morning Herald 'A perfectly paced, thrilling read with an unrelenting sense of dread and menace ...building suspense at every turn of the page.

Krystal Campbell 

This book takes you on a wild ride! Disclaimer: It is not for the light hearted and there are some pretty brutal scenes. But if you are after a book with multi POV, quick chapters and that keeps you going and gripping action from start to finish then you will enjoy this book.
