The Hunters #7
Walk into Darkness
He took the long walk into darkness. Now he was in a fight for his life.
It's a world where the normal rules we all live by in the light of day do not apply, a world where life is cheap and death can come from nowhere and for no reason.
When a wave of violence sweeps over once quiet neighborhoods, claiming innocent lives, The Hunters are called on to find a way to stop it. A young police officer joins the team and is asked to walk into a dark world where the rules of society have disappeared. Survival in that world requires courage, ability and luck.
From bestselling author Glenn Trust, the latest addition to The Hunters Series takes the reader along on a page-turning journey into the dark heart of our society and shows us the way back to the light.

With that out of the way, let's begin.
This is the blah, blah, blah section. You know the author’s “glory page” where he gets to tell you grandiose things about himself and the deeper meaning of his work. Whatever.
I write books. Seriously, that's what I get to do every day. It's great.
I have been fortunate to author some that have achieved bestseller status, including The Hunters Series of mystery suspense thrillers. It took me a lot of years to get to that point, but I wouldn't trade any of them for a minute. I love writing books for you and the journey that brought me here.
I am a native of the south, Georgia specifically. I spent much of my life there, but I have lived in many other places as well. We moved a lot when I was young. Eventually, we ended up back in Georgia in my teens where I finished school and went to work.
I wanted to write from an early age. A really long time ago, when I was still a young police officer in Georgia, I was writing short stories in my spare time and sending them off to magazines. One day I received one back in the mail.
Life Happened
Attached to it was a nice handwritten letter from an editor (this was long before the days of email and texts). The story manuscript was folded and smudged, and there were coffee cup rings on the edges of a couple of pages, which told me they had actually read it, maybe discussed it around an editorial table, or just used it to sop up the coffee.
In her letter, the editor said a lot of things that I don't remember, but it was not the usual form letter that I was accustomed to receiving. It was original and personal.
She said they liked my story, had strongly considered it for publication, but that it wasn't quite believable. Disappointed as I was, I was struck by her last words to me..."Don't stop writing. You're good at this. We almost bought this one."
I remember staring at that a long time. Then I folded it up and tucked it in a file and...stopped writing.
I wish I could tell you a different story, but I can't. I stopped writing for many years.
There were lots of reasons. Yes, I was disappointed, but the letter that should have encouraged me not to give up was forgotten.
Life happened. Dreams of writing were pushed aside by other things...important things.
Mostly I needed money for my young family. In the 1970s, police officers in Georgia were not paid a lot even by the standards of the day. I worked part-time jobs whenever I wasn't working at the police department. Many weeks I had no days off at all.
I'm not unhappy that I did my best to take care of my family. It was the right thing to do and working for them was the joy of my life.
Children grew up; then grandchildren came along. More life happened.
Then...The Internet Appeared
Out of the blue, this thing called the internet appeared and guess what. I was at a point in life when I didn't need to work part-time jobs every spare minute of the day. I could write again.
It's different these days. I can publish a book whether I convince an agent or editor to read it or not. I am an independent writer/publisher, an “Indie.”
It’s a partnership between us, writer and reader, and it's a marvelous thing.
Don't be a Follower -- Make Your Dream Real
It took many years to get here. Life is like that, with lots of twists and turns and surprises. I like it that way.
Now, I write every day, so here's my parting advice.
Don’t follow your dreams. Followers get nowhere except up the backside of the person in front.
Work and make your dream a reality.

With Walk into Darkness, Glenn Trust takes his readers from Jihadist terrorist to the gangbangers of East Alanta, but the action is just as intense. One of the things that I really love about this series is how Trust brings back villains that escaped the clutches of the Hunters in earlier books to play key roles in the current book. It’s a neat way of showing that no one escapes justice once the hunters have set their sights on them.
These are all character driven stories. The action packed plots are important, but it’s the characters that make them all “bestsellers.” Glenn Trust has created characters that are so real, so lifelike, that they come alive on the pages. Characters that are easy to identify with and root for, because, like us, they are flawed each in their own way. They’re like people that I knew and worked with back in the day when I worked for Uncle Sam. With these books the temporary suspension of disbelief is never an issue.
So far in this series we have met serial killers, corrupt politicians, corrupt/dirty cops, Jihadist, and gangbangers, who will we meet next in Lost, book 8 in the Hunter Series? I have no idea of how many more books Glenn Trust has planned for this series, but, like the old Mack Bolan’s Executioner series, it’s a series that I never want to end. Now I’m off to dive into Lost!

Although I never read any of the previous books of this set I immediately followed the story and related with the characters however as a previous member of the Air Force OSI I couldn't find the story totally believable. Overall captivating and entertaining.

Great read
Loved this one. The entire hunter series has been great. You get to really know all the players, see into their day to day lives, outside the main plot line. Can’t wait for the next one!

The expansion of gang culture in Atlanta and its associated crime is on the rise. But what politicans and the OSI believe can be done differ when the team is brought in after the murder of a minister.
An interesting crime story
