The Last Hunt

For more than two decades, DEA Special Agent Steve Jenkins has fought a war he knows cannot be won. Cartels adapt. Politicians compromise. Corruption spreads faster than justice. Yet he keeps hunting.

When a routine operation in Los Angeles spirals into political fallout, Jenkins finds himself chasing a trail that reaches far beyond the streets of Southern California. Across the border in Mexico, Mexican federal officer Jacqueline Contreras is fighting a battle of her own against powerful criminal organizations, compromised institutions, and enemies hidden within the very agencies sworn to uphold the law.

As intelligence networks unravel and trusted allies disappear, Jenkins and Contreras uncover evidence of a conspiracy that stretches from cartel strongholds in Jalisco to the highest levels of political and corporate power. What begins as an investigation quickly becomes a deadly pursuit where every lead carries a cost and every victory reveals a deeper layer of deception.

Caught between loyalty, duty, and survival, they must decide how far they are willing to go when the line between justice and vengeance begins to disappear.

Set against the brutal realities of the modern drug war, The Last Hunt is a gritty international thriller filled with cartel violence, covert operations, political intrigue, and relentless suspense. Drawing on authentic law-enforcement experience, Scott Cahill delivers a story of corruption, sacrifice, and the hunters who risk everything to expose the truth.
