Plot

Tiny Mpayipheli, a six foot three giant with a quiet demeanor, once earned his living as a government gun for hire. But now he's moved to the countryside and leads a quiet, ordered life. The woman he loves and her son have never learned about his past or the deadly skills he mastered in darker days.Then the daughter of an old friend tracks him down, desperate for help. Her father has been kidnapped, and Tiny has to make an agonizing decision: remain in the peaceful life he's built with his new family, or honor a debt to a trusted friend. It's no contest. Tiny agrees to deliver the ransom to the kidnappers. He has seventy-two hours to save his friend from certain death.When Tiny is intercepted by government agents at the airport, he realizes that he's stepped into something far more complex than a kidnapping. All obvious travel options are blocked, and Tiny is forced to hijack an off-road motorcycle and take off across the wild roads of backcountry Africa. With little time left to liberate his friend, he races the monstrous yellow bike across the weathered, dusty roads with danger constantly at his back - for shadowy underground factions have now joined in pursuit, and the nation's security forces are tightening their net as they come to understand that the rogue they're after may be none other than the most cunning assassin ever known - the lethal warrior known as the Hunter.
