Story
The world is under cyber-attack. The secretive terror outfit of linked lone-wolf operatives known as Zodiac has activated another terrorist cell. Chaos will be unleashed at six-hour intervals, with each event more catastrophic than the last, culminating in a devastating global catastrophe within 48 hours. Consequences are unthinkable. The US president has the power to enact the Internet Freedom Act - the 'kill switch'. Turning off the net will stop the attacks and give the CIA and the Pentagon time, but it's not that simple.

Publisher's Summary
When the hunters become the hunted, ex-CIA agent Jed Walker is the man you need.
In 2011, Seal Team Six killed Osama Bin Laden. Now, four years later, someone is eliminating Team Six - one by one they are turning up dead. Jed Walker, ex-CIA, is an outsider back in the game. He's been chasing down a sinister group code-named Zodiac that the big guns - MI5, CIA, the Pentagon - have failed to eradicate. But as Walker follows the trail of bodies, uncovering secrets and making connections he's not supposed to make, he finds the answers are closer to home than he ever imagined. Revenge is the obvious motive, but nothing is ever that simple in love or in war. Can Walker find who's responsible before the body count grows higher? Can he stop another terror attack before more innocent bystanders suffer?
When the line between the good and the bad becomes blurred, when the hunters become the hunted, only one man can save us all.
The Hunted is the second Jed Walker novel - a white-knuckled roller coaster of action suspense.
James Phelan is the best-selling and award-winning author of 28 novels and one work of nonfiction. From his teens he wanted to be a novelist but first tried his hand at a real job, studying and working in architecture before turning to English literature, spending five years at a newspaper and obtaining an MA and a PhD in literature. For Hachette Australia, James has written five titles in the Lachlan Fox thriller series and the Alone trilogy of young adult postapocalyptic novels.
The ex-CIA character of Jed Walker was first introduced in The Spy, which was followed by The Hunted, Kill Switch and Dark Heart. James has also written a 14-book adventure series for Scholastic, titled The Last Thirteen. He has been a full-time novelist since the age of 25 and spends his time writing thrilling stories and travelling the world to talk about them.
Critic Reviews

Good series
Don’t expect reality, it’s an action book and it’s pretty good. My only comment would be to agree with the other reviewer who mentioned narration. The diction is different and words are pronounced differently than typical, but that’s kinda fun too. This does not take away anything form the story and in fact at times makes me pay more attention. Overall well worth the credit (IMHO)

Jed has become the man!
Jed was a greenie in Book 1, and only saved by 3 contacts who happened to be around. Now it is 10 years later, he has graduated even from the CIA, so his skills are now top notch and he needs nobody's help. This story is exciting and well done.
I understand that the audio for this book is done in Australia, but it is still weird to have an Aussie narrate a so very American tale. He pronounces Ft. Detrick with a short e, as in debt, but I always heard the Army folk call it Deetrick. They could be wrong.
There are more than 4 editing errors, where the narrator mispronounced some word and it was re-recorded, but we get to hear both the correct and the wrong, so Audible Australia needs to up its professionalism.
Despite this accent disconnect, Jed has matured and honed his skills to the point where we will continue to follow his exploits!

I quit on this book once before, but I tried it again because it was in my library. I’ve now read the first two books, but I won’t get any more in the series. Just enough to keep my attention, but I never fell in love with any of the characters, and you have to suspend belief too often on the story line.

No action
I admit that i have not read any other books by this author but from the synopsis I expected an action/drama. I got a lot of talking and subjects that were difficult to follow because of the poor performance of the narrator. I listened to the first thirteen chapters and I was bored to tears. There were a one or two actions scenes but they were so poorly written I could not make any sense of what was going on. In one scene I couldn't decipher who had been shot if anyone. There was no character development. I could not picture any character in the book and for those that were introduced I could have cared less whether they were there or not. The author spent a lot of time discussing the Jed Walker's relationship with his wife. The wife was there but she didn't say anything, it was as if she was some form of a ghost he was holding. All through this he was discussing his next assignment. I would have thought she would have had some input into the conversation. I am returning this book, it was by far the worse book I have ever listened to.
