Final Hunt

Discover the final explosive instalment in the Joe Clayton Thrillers from bestselling author Tom Bale.

'Explosive action and nail-biting tension that doesn’t let up.' Bestselling author Andrew Warren

The hunt is over. The final battle begins.

For eleven years, former undercover cop Joe Clayton has lived a lie, hiding from the ruthless Morton gang. Just as he finally dares to look to the future with Gemma Granger in a quiet Sussex village, his past catches up with him in the most devastating way possible.

A cold-blooded professional investigator is closing in, leaving a trail of tortured bodies in his wake. But his ultimate target isn't just Joe – it’s the family that Joe had to leave behind more than a decade ago.

Joe is forced out of the shadows and into a desperate race to the Suffolk coast. To save the people he loves, he must unleash every lethal skill he has spent years trying to forget.

The threat is real, the betrayal runs deep, and this time there is nowhere left to hide.
