••••••••

REVIEW: BLOOD FEUD is the first instalment in Stewart Clyde’s contemporary, adult STIRLING HUNT military , suspense thriller series focusing on former British Marine Captain Stirling Hunt.

NOTE: There are some scenes of graphic violence that may not be suitable for more sensitive readers.

Told from several third person perspectives including Stirling Hunt, BLOOD FEUD follows Marine Captain Stirling Hunt in the aftermath of a mission to Afghanistan that went all to h*ll. Discharged following months of rehab, Stirling Hunt will be approached by Secret Intelligence Service (MI6 ) for a Deep Ops mission to take down a terrorist with connections to Russian organized crime, a terrorist with a connection to Stirling’s past. Hoping to avenge the murders of his mother and father, Stirling sets out on a journey of vengeance that will find our hero facing his own mortality, risking the lives of his friends along the way.

BLOOD FEUD is a story of betrayal, vengeance and intrigue; of secrets and lies; of power and control. With the help of his friends Johan van Driebek aka VD, and Portuguese army fixer Doc, Stirling struggles to stay one step ahead of the criminal cartel, and dirty law enforcement on the take in every town. From militant guerillas, to the smuggling of arms, Stirling goes on the hunt for a blood red diamond, a diamond meant as payment for his life. The fast paced premise is dramatic and intense, with a colorful and energetic cast of secondary and supporting characters.
