Hunter or HuntedA Gwen Kane Thriller

In this pulse-pounding thriller from the authors of the Maddie Castle series, Gwen Kane seeks the help of her hesitant lover to plan the perfect crime.

Gwen Kane knows what monsters look like. Living and working at Rhiannon’s Ranch―a sanctuary for women escaping abuse―she’s seen her fair share of them. So when her friend Delilah turns up dead after trying to escape from her violent boyfriend, Gwen doesn’t buy the “suicide” story for a second. She knows who did it and how to bring him to justice.

There’s just one problem: Taking someone out in self-defense is a far cry from a planned homicide. For this, Gwen needs Sebastian Everett, the mild-mannered veterinarian who once made his own sister’s killer quietly disappear. But having already buried one body on his land, he’s not exactly eager to risk adding another to the graveyard.

Running out of options, Gwen’s rage hardens into resolve as those in charge refuse to conduct a proper investigation. If no one else will protect women like Delilah―or provide her grieving friends with some real closure―she will. But she’s swallowed her anger for too long, and now she’s a ticking time bomb primed to explode.

No one understands this better than Sebastian. If he can’t bring Gwen back from the edge, she’ll be pushed farther into the shadows―and closer to the edge of whom she’s willing to become. But giving her what she wants could mean losing her to something neither of them will survive.

Tense, riveting, and impossible to put down, Hunter or Hunted is a gripping psychological thriller perfect for fans of Verity and Big Little Lies.
