When college kids hiking near an abandoned military industrial complex in West Virginia mysteriously disappear, special agent Janet Carter - earnest, honest, and fed up with the stifling chauvinistic environment at the Roanoke FBI headquarters - is called in to investigate. Unfortunately, there are no leads - it's as if the three just vanished into thin air.

The authorities at the FBI are quick to write off the case as teenage runaways, and order Janet off the case - but not before she has the chance to speak with the father of one of the missing, Edwin Kriess.

Kriess is an ex-"sweeper", a member of an elite CIA task force trained to track down and bring in rogue agents. To be a sweeper means to be expertly trained in the art of hunting and killing, and Kriess was not only a sweeper himself, but the agent in charge of training and leading the entire program. Only something went wrong - an assignment to track down an agent involved in a Chinese espionage plot ended in a bloody massacre, and threatened to reveal a monumental government cover-up. Kriess was quietly sacrificed to the scandal, and has since lived in solitude.

But now his daughter is missing, and he knows that she didn't run away - and he will do anything to find her and bring her abductors to justice. His search brings him back to the abandoned industrial complex, where two right-wing religious fanatics - tied to the Waco disaster and inspired by the Oklahoma City bombing - are building a hydrogen bomb.

When the FBI learns of Kriess' independent investigations, they fear the worst: he knows too many secrets already, and if his search efforts are successful, a scandal of epic proportions would unfold. They decide they need a plant, someone who has access to Kriess, and can win his trust. Someone who will report back what he knows, and what he finds - and that person is Janet Carter.

"Deutermann's latest blast at the FBI/ CIA establishment [is] read with muscular intelligence by Hill." ( Publishers Weekly)
"A solid read from an author whose own tradecraft is every bit as good as that of his characters." ( Booklist)

What a story!

I really enjoyed the story and I thought the narrator was excellent as well. The plot moves in unexpected ways and certain issues resolve unexpectedly, yet there remain other matters that must be addressed. I liked the characters in the story and I appreciated that there was no all-knowing character who reached grandly accurate conclusions based on little evidence as there are in some stories I've read.

Excellent story

Hunting Season doesn't take long to reel you in and then you need your seat belt on. It's filled with twists and turns that keep you guessing until the very end. The contrast of Southwest Virginia characters with the intrigue of secret government agencies make for a realistic story. The narrator handled the accents and variety of characters masterfully.

Buckle Your Seat!! Hunting Season's On!!

This was my first P.T. Deutermann book. I found myself looking up his bibliography before I was too far into the story. Excellent writer. Well paced suspenseful story. I'm always surprised when I read reviewers not liking Dick Hill. I find him to be one of the best at what he does. His voice brings me into lesser stories---so when it is as well written as this one---I was glad I'd made the purchase.

If you have ever heard PT's book "Zero Option" narrated by Dick Hill, then you may have thought it couldn't get better......well you'd be wrong,and Dick Hill shines in this one as he does in all his audios. I am always amazed at how he is able to do the different voices and keep them all straight.......fantastic book.

One of "P.T.'s best!
