This book was a really fun book to read. A lot goes on in this book. Lots of characters and plot, it felt a little hard to keep up with. Nonetheless I still enjoyed it. Thank you for the chance to be able to read this book.

I hadn't read the previous 2 books, but that didnt matter as you quickly caught onto the story. Erica is searching for her dad, who is a manipulative serial killer that is presumed to be dead, however Erica truly believes that her father is still alive and decides to investigate her theory on her own. This involves erica chasing her 'dead' father in places such as brazil, and france. amd is quiet fast moving, but then ends on a cliff hanger.
Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

It took me a few attempts to get into this book and took me a while to read. Maybe it was because it's part of a series. I stuck with it and finished and it was OK but I don't think I'll read any more in the series.

Forgot to review this at the time I read it but it must have been a great book because I can remember the whole thing! Gregg Dunnett is a new author for me and I’m excited to read the first 2 books of the series after reading The Hunt. It was the blurb that drew me in as I’m a sucker for anything thriller and let me say this did not disappoint! There were lots of twist and turns in the book that keep you gripped from start to finish and the writing style is great, would 100% recommend.

Erica Sands refuses to give up on her search for her serial killer father. Even though he seems to have dropped off the face of the earth after his escape from prison she continues her search. The book is divided into four parts. I wasn't really drawn in by the first part, which involved Erica's search in Brazil. I was almost ready to give up but the next two sections were much more engaging. The final part went back to Erica and annoyingly ended in a cliff hanger.

I read the first in this series and I really disliked Erica. I missed the second one & this one didn't endear her to me very much. So cliff hanger or not, I don't think I'll be back for book four. Thanks to Netgalley & the publisher for letting me read & review this book.

After reading The Trap, I was really looking forward to another instalment in this series. I have to admit that I found it a bit hard to get into, initially, and wondered in which direction it was going to go.

Erica Sands is abrasive as usual, but her instincts are usually spot-on and she backs her convictions by quitting the police force at the beginning of this book. Her 2IC believes in her but he thinks she is wrong in this instance.

Charles Sterling is a serial killer - he is also Erica's father. He has escaped from prison and Erica is notified of his death, in Vietnam. She smells a rat though and tries to follow his trail. This is the distraction she doesn't need as she tries to solve the cases that cross her desk, in the UK.

One day, Luke Golding, hard at work on the cases that Erica SHOULD have been concentrating on, gets a call from a young French journalist. This tilts his whole world on its axis (both personally and professionally) and he goes to France. That is when things get really, really interesting....

A very fast-paced book, other than the first third of it (which seems quite confusing to me, lots of characters and places introduced etc).

And the cliffhanger at the end of it.......cruel, Gregg Dunnett, cruel!! Hope the next book is coming out very soon, to put us out of our collective miseries!

4 stars from me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing.

Thank you so much NetGalley and Storm Publishing for my copy of The Hunt by Gregg Dunnett. Gregg does it again with yet anther thrilling DCI Erica Sands novel! This was a great follow up to book two. I love Erica's spunk and wit, she is the prefect amout of no no nonsense cop! I also really enjoyed that the spotlight was given to Dective Luke Golding for a bit as well. Not going to lie I was a little (okay, alot) confused when I got to part two, what in the world do these French jourlalists had to do with finding out if Charles Sterling is dead, but that was completely cleared up in the epic part three! The ending still has me asking so many questions, and I think it made it pretty clear we can expect a book four! I will be patiently wating @greggdunnettauthor 4.3/5 ⭐️

I’ve never read the previous books but was still able to get enough from the book to enjoy it. I was a bit confused reading it where it went from present day to (what felt like) another storyline unrelated to the book, to a then jump in time back but eventually it all starts to make sense and the it’s at that point the book really hooked me in! Good characters and a storyline that has you hooked to want to read on!

Yeah, I didn’t like the format of this book. Part 1 is interesting & kept me engaged. Then it moves to part 2 which made me wonder if I was reading a completely different book. It made no sense, in regards to part 1. It’s not until the very last sentences that it connects to part 1. The 3rd part, goes back in time to fill in gaps then connects & continues from part 1. Then there is absolutely no ending AT All, for anything. You’re left right in the middle of the action …and it ends.

A book that is a real page turner. I have not read the two preceding books but this is fine as a stand alone. I thoroughly enjoyed the twists and turns of the plot. The main characterDCI Erica Sands is hunting her serial killer father whom she had believed was dead. The book keeps you interested throughout and it has a great ending.

The story revolves around DCI Erica Sands' pursuit of her father, Charles Sterling, an infamous serial killer who has escaped from a maximum-security prison. This is a thriller that promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats.

The Hunt is book 3 in the Detective Erica Sands Series

I really loved this book with the mystery and twist. I think it's well written and held my attention from page one. I would recommend reading from book one because they are great but you don't have too. Detective Erica's father is a serial killer and she was informed he is dead. She is not buying the story and starts the investigation to find out what is really going on. I did scream really at the end because its a cliffhanger.. Come on Gregg! lol.. Jk I can't wait to read more!!

Suspenseful, engaging and scary. If you're a fan of thrillers you don't want to miss this one. The Hunt might keep you awake at night.

The Hunt is Detective Erica Sands's third book. She gets a little upset with the difficulties in finding Charles Sterling. In hunting for him, Erica travels to South Asia, South America, and Europe. She is sure that Charles Sterling, who, by the way, is her father, has not changed and is planning and will be killing more people. Not everyone believes in this. Would this be true? You must read the book to find out.

This book was ok. I didn’t love the characters. Some were downright unlikable. Though the plot was somewhat predictable, the story was well written. I enjoyed that, while written from multiple perspectives, the book did not excessively bounce back and forth between POVs, but instead was written in four parts. The most unpredictable part of the book was how it ended. I don’t want to spoil it, but I definitely wanted something I didn’t get.

The Hunt is the third installment in the Erica Sands series, and it proves to be just as captivating as its predecessors. The story takes readers on a thrilling international chase, spanning Brazil, Vietnam, France, and back to the UK.

At the heart of the novel is Charles Sterling, a brilliant yet dangerous serial killer who has managed to escape from a high-security prison. Pursuing him relentlessly is his estranged daughter, Erica, whose duty as a law enforcer is complicated by their complex personal history. Their intense game of cat and mouse dominates the plot, creating a gripping dynamic filled with tension and psychological depth.

New characters, such as Cloarec & Clemence, brings fresh intrigue to the story, adding layers to an already intricate narrative. However, the book ends on a nerve-wracking cliffhanger—one that does not seem to promise good fortune for Erica. While this left me eager for the next installment, it was also frustrating to be left hanging at such a pivotal moment.

One of the book’s standout elements is its global scope, which adds a sense of urgency and high stakes as international law enforcement, including Interpol and various police forces, become involved. The constant shift in locations enhances the story’s intensity, making it a fast-paced and thoroughly enjoyable read. I cannot wait to see what happens next in the series.

Thank you Netgalley, Storm Publishing & Gregg Dunnett for this arc!

Thank you NetGalley, Storm Publishing and author, Gregg Dunnett for the arc!

Whoa. Holy cliffhanger, Batman!!

This is book three in the DCI Erica Sands series and it’s been a great ride so far! Each book has been a captivating page turner for me! It’s a fast-paced police crime drama featuring a strong female detective who juggles solving cases while living in the shadow of her notorious serial killer father.

This one is split up into parts and at first I couldn’t figure out why part 2 seemed to start a whole new story … hmmm, head scratcher. Then all of a sudden … I wasn’t wondering anymore! There are some great twists and suspenseful moments in this latest journey of Erica’s as it races it’s way to the mother of all cliffhangers!! Excited to see what comes next!

My suggestion for this series is to read the books in order to watch Erica’s story unfold and follow the storyline better >>> The Cove, The Trap, The Hunt

Wow this is a real page turner, but only to be expected having read all of Gregg's previous books. It's full of twists and turns and you still don't get all of the answers! I would highly recommend this book to everyone.

This book initially gripped me. Then, half way through it changed tack altogether and seemed to be a completely different book. It took a long time for the connection between the two stories to be clear and then, all of a sudden the book was finished and I was left with more questions than answers. It honestly frustrated me.

The Hunt kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish! Erica Sands is such a compelling protagonist, and her personal connection to the case adds so much emotional weight to the story. I was really drawn into her relentless pursuit of her father, a serial killer, and the mystery surrounding his disappearance. The twists were unpredictable, and the investigation led to some truly chilling moments. I especially enjoyed how Erica’s instincts were put to the test, as well as the tension between her and the mysterious figures around her. The pacing was tight, and I couldn’t wait to see how everything would unfold. It lost half a star for a couple of predictable moments, but overall, it’s a thrilling, heart-pounding ride! Highly recommend for fans of psychological thrillers!
