The US Review of Books (USRB) commended “The Hunter: Southeast Asia” by Brad Bagwell because it is “unique in the genre as it doesn’t rely on intense action scenes and seemingly impossible obstacles to drive the story forward” 

Mark Heisey of the US Review of Books praises Brad Bagwell’s “The Hunter: Southeast Asia” and acknowledges that “Bagwell’s short adventure story draws deeply on the popular special agent trope. Even the use of the alter ego will be easily understood and familiar to fans of the genre due to its appearance in recent books and television series.”

Another book in the Hunter series is “The Hunter: Southeast Asia”. Justin Hunter is an agent with a covert organization. He, along with Janine, his organization’s handler, and John, another agent who has a crew of agents who always seem to be there to aid with each assignment. When Justin, Janine, and John get together, you know something intriguing is going to happen. Once again, the author brings them to areas where he has visited, offering the reader the opportunity to travel across the world. So sit back and enjoy The Hunter’s latest adventure as he takes on a mission in Southeast Asia.

Larry Walker is a person who goes by the identity of Justin Hunter, a secret agent. When he receives a task, his alter ego comes to life. After it’s done, Larry is none the wiser. But this time, Larry awakens with memories of his prior mission returning to him, even though he has no idea where he is or how he got there. He understands that his previous mission was to prevent terrorists from detonating a dirty bomb and murdering millions as he starts to put together what happened. He puts together how he discovered the location where the terrorists intended to use the dirty bomb, as well as the tools and strategies he employed to stop them, as he relives his time as Justin Hunter.

Here’s an excerpt from the US Review of Books that highlights:

Bagwell uses his protagonist’s visions about his alter ego’s last deployment to tell the story of that mission. Meanwhile, the reader shares the agent’s thought process as he thwarts the bad guys. The author’s book is unique in the genre as it doesn’t rely on intense action scenes and seemingly impossible obstacles to drive the story forward. An audience looking for a quick read consumable in a single setting could find this to be just the right mix of adventure and spycraft to entertain them.”
