Joe Hunter is an ex-counterterrorism expert who leaves his native England to hunt down John Tefler, his half-brother in America, a petty thief that skipped out on his kids. John is in a situation of his own, running from someone and crossing lines with the Harvestman, a psychopath that takes souvenirs from his victim's body as he kills coast-to-coast. I like Joe, who reminds me of Jack Reacher (Lee Child) or Repairman Jack (F.Paul Wilson), but it seems like the character needs to grow a bit - I'll be checking out the sequel to find out if he does!
