Published in 1998, Time to Hunt is still relevant. Master sniper Bob Lee Swagger (the Nailer) must face his deadliest foe from Vietnam - and his own demons - to save his wife and daughter. Events that colored the nation's history in Washington during this era, a peace march and a young Marines ideals, combine to touch Swagger and his family just when he thought he had it all behind him. Bob's wife, Julie, has a difficult time dealing with the "black dogs" that torment him, the secrets he seems to contain, and the danger she feels she and Nikki, their daughter, could be in. Even though Stephen Hunter has taken liberties with the facts, this story is quite believable and makes a lot of good points. Worth reading if you like mystery based on some fact. I liked it. Sandy P
