Book Description:
At first, The Hunt Club had a membership of one private investigator Wyatt Hunt. Since then, others have joined, both on and off the official payroll. Their common interest is obtaining justice -- one way or another. But they don't mind having a little fun along the way, and that's exactly what they're doing one late-spring night at a San Francisco bar...
One of them is missing the festivities, though. Homicide inspector Devin Juhle has just caught a major case: the shooting death of a sixty-three year old federal judge and his twentysomething mistress. While Juhle works, Hunt plays, hooking up with TV star and legal analyst Andrea Parisi -- once he escorts her safely home and sobers her up, that is.
But before Hunt knows it, Juhle's case will be of great interest to the members of The Hunt Club. Especially to Hunt himself. Not just because Anrea's card was found in the wallet of one of the victims, but because just hours after their first romantic encounter, she disappears...

Kariamu O. from MARINA DL REY, CA wrote on 3/12/2008...This was a fun book. There were engaging characters (although there were enough secondary characters for things to get a little confusing) and an interesting plot. Lescroart did a great job building suspense without resorting to anything particularly gory/heinous/extreme. I'd definitely read more from Lescroart.
Stephanie S. (Excellent tale of murder, missing suspects and lots of twists to the tale. I couldn't put the book down. Not a police procedural per se which is this author's usual type book. Great read and surprises galore.
Just what you would expect from this author - another fast page turning, excellent read. The Hunt Club really take Lescroart to the next level
Absolutely great. I couldn't put it down and was sorry to see it end. I certainly hope this is the start if a new series. Wyatt Hunt is a likable PI, not afraid to push the envelope, but it will keep you interested. I figured out the killer too soon, so I wasn't surprised at the ending, but it didn't hurt my enjoyment of the book. Highly recommend.
This is the newest of Lescroart's crime dramas. Good characters and fast moving. Couldn't put it down....
This was good. This new character is alsmost as good as Dismas Hardy who also appears briefly in this book. A lot of the same characters turn up in this book as in the Dismas Hardy books. If you are a fan of Lescroart, he's just doing a "spin-off" for a new series
The Hunt Club-- sometimes it takes unorthodox actions to catch the bad guys!!Very good.one of his best
Mark G. wrote on 3/30/2007...I thought John Lescroart could not have better characters than Dismas Hardy and Abe Glitsky. I was wrong. Great characters (again) and a great book!
