A great, fun read. I have always felt Saul has had a problem with endings, and I don't think this book is an exception, but it's certainly a wonderful, entertaining effort.

This book starts out with great potential, but just goes down hill from there. I can't give any examples without giving anything away. But it was entertaining enough

This should be made into a movie. I read this book in 1 day and was on complete edge the whole time.

A dirty, down in the sewers, killer mystery. This has a not-so-typical John Saul approach that is unique in its delivery. Just when you think the book is getting boring; the next twist hits, again and again.

I have enjoyed reading quite a few John Saul books, but this one was by far the most realistic, thrilling and enjoyable of all. From the moment I started reading, I was captivated and wanted nothing more than to read it through to the conclusion. If you enjoy reading thrillers, or like authors like Dean Koontz, I would highly recommend this book.

This is one of the most intriguing books I've read in a long time and is the kind of book that stays with you for days after you've finished it. The story plot is not one that you hear about every day and is so bizarre that I couldn't put it down!

In Manhattan Hunt Club John Saul plumbs the depths of the Manhattan underground--the network of subway tunnels and secret caverns and chambers where the homeless denizens of the city have created their own society. It's a world Jeff Converse, a young college student convicted of a crime he didn't commit, never knew existed until he is plunged into it after an "accident" that occurs while he is being transported to prison. He soon realizes that it's no accident, but the opening move in a deadly game being played by some of the city's most powerful men and women, a game in which he is the prey and they are the hunters. Jeff's only chance to make it to the surface and survive lies in allying himself with a homicidal maniac who's appointed himself the young man's protector, but whose designs on Jeff are almost as lethal as those of his enemies in the Manhattan Hunt Club.

Falsely convicted of a brutal crime, college student Jeff Converse sees his future vanishing before his eyes. But someone has other plans for Jeff, in a place far deadlier than any penitentiary. Jeff finds himself beneath the teeming streets of Manhattan, in a hidden landscape of twisting tunnels and forgotten subterranean chambers. Here, an invisible population of the homeless, the desperate, and the mad has carved out its own shadow society. But they are not alone. For someone has made this forsaken civilization a private killing ground. Now, with no weapon but his wits, and an unimaginable threat lurking around every dark corner, Jeff must somehow move heaven and earth to escape from a living hell.
