About This Book
Tori Hunter has built her career on solving other people's tragedies, but in Hunter's Revenge, the past she's spent decades trying to outrun comes crashing back. When a dead man's home turns out to be a shrine to Tori herself — and the murder weapon connects directly to the brutal killing of her family thirty years earlier — she's not just a detective anymore. She's a target, a suspect, and a daughter who never got justice. Pulled from the case and working outside the rules, Tori isn't chasing closure. She wants something rawer and more dangerous than that.
Gerri Hill writes Tori Hunter with a consistency and depth that pays off richly by the fifth installment — readers who've followed this series will feel every layer of history pressing against each scene. Hill keeps the pacing sharp without sacrificing the emotional weight that makes this story land, and the relationships between Tori, Casey, and Sam carry genuine texture rather than serving as mere backdrop to the thriller plot. This is the kind of series entry that reminds you why you started reading from the beginning.
