Blood Hunt

A Gritty Thriller from the Master of Scottish Crime

From bestselling author Ian Rankin — best known for his Inspector Rebus series — Blood Hunt is a standalone thriller packed with action, conspiracy, and dark revenge. First published in 2002, this gripping novel showcases Rankin’s sharp eye for suspense beyond the familiar streets of Edinburgh.

A Brother’s Death. A Deadly Secret.

Former SAS soldier Gordon Reeve lives a quiet, isolated life in the Scottish Highlands — until he receives shocking news: his journalist brother has been found dead in a car in California. The police rule it suicide. Gordon doesn’t believe it.

Determined to uncover the truth, Gordon sets off on a relentless investigation that takes him from Los Angeles to London and back to Scotland. What he finds is a shadowy web of deceit, corporate corruption, and deadly cover-ups. As he digs deeper, he’s forced to confront violent forces who will stop at nothing to silence him — and anyone who gets in their way.

Relentless, Ruthless, and Razor-Sharp

Blood Hunt is a tense, fast-paced thriller that explores justice, loyalty, and how far one man will go to find the truth. A must-read for Rankin fans and anyone who loves gritty, intelligent crime fiction.
