description: In this sequel to The Hunter, which became a motion picture starring Steve McQueen, the reader is reintroduced to Dottie and Brandi Thorson, who have no choice but to take up the family business when Ralph is killed by a car bomb outside their home. Faced with a mountain of bills and no assets, the women set out to do the only thing they know how to do. Initially they meet with strong resistance among the mostly male denizens of the bail-bond circuit, until in a remarkable showdown they shoot and capture a notoriously dangerous felon and bring him to justice. Their business, which was originally publicized when the duo was shown apprehending a bail-jumper on the six o'clock evening news, continues in Los Angeles to this day.This is gritty look at the underbelly of the justice system, but most of all it is the story of two extraordinary women who have prevailed in a world of men, and who have fought their way to the top of their profession.
