The explosive Amazon top 20 bestseller ...

'The Trespass'

First they tried to kill him. Then they took his daughter . . .


Anthropologist Simon Dracup knows that his only hope of finding her alive lies within the pages of his grandfather's diary, the record of a near century old expedition to Mount Ararat, legendary resting place of the great Ark of Noah.

When the CIA pays him a visit Dracup learns that something was found on the Ark. Something priceless. Now its owners have taken it back, but they want revenge and Dracup is their prime target . . .

Dracup finds himself plunged into a desperate battle for survival as he hunts for evidence that will lead him to the sinister Korumak Tanri, but even he could not have predicted the shocking truth about the mysterious cult and the ancient secret they are sworn to protect . . .

'The Trespass' is a gripping, fast-paced novel that asks serious questions about the nature of our existence.

'Very imaginative. In my view not unlike Dan Brown .. But not Dan Brown :)
...'


'...a great read, with plenty of action throughout the book. Its kind of
like reading an Indiana Jones story, compelling you to read on.
Brilliantly written, loved it

About the Author

Scott was born in Romford, Essex in 1956. His writing career was kick-started after he won first prize in the Sunday Express Short Story Competition. Scott divides his time between writing, IT contract work and drumming. He has recorded with internationally renowned rock band 'Jethro Tull' and appeared in concert with 70's popsters 'Mungo Jerry'. Scott has recently published his third and fourth novels, the first an adult crime thriller entitled 'Black December', and the second an historical novel set in Roman Britain in 367AD entitled 'The Serpent and the Slave'. Scott lives in Berkshire with his wife, Katherine, his two youngest children (Tom, 14 and Emily, 13) and a Cocker Spaniel named Archie. He is a committed Christian (Scott, not Archie) and is actively involved in his local church in Reading. Scott was long listed for the Times/Chicken House Children's Novel Competition for 'The Ley Lines of Lushbury' and won the Sunday Express Short Story Competition a few years back for his historical entry set in the English Civil War. 'The Trespass' is an Amazon Kindle top 20 Bestseller.

5.0 out of 5 stars More please! 15 Aug 2012

This is the second novel I have read by Scott Hunter - it is a cracking thriller with a great main character. Scott's use of history and the bible story of man's beginnings is interesting and leaves you wondering about how mankind really began with Adam and Eve. Excellent stuff!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good! 26 Oct 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
I am a die hard fan of this genre, and can say I really enjoyed this book! It has a good plot and some great twists and turns. It is well written and avoids the stating the obvious and over use of exclamation marks that often pepper the pages of such books. A good, fun read.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Trespass 23 Nov 2011
By NOSE
Format:Kindle Edition
'The Trespass' is cleverly written, full of suspense and intrigue. The prose is beautifully descriptive overflowing with intricate detail and characters who come to life.

I almost feel the need to visit some of the places in this book in order to discover for myself whether or not this really is fiction!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very good 17 Feb 2013
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
There is an interesting looking plot, but the antics of the hero go way beyond what you would expect from an acedemic. In addition, I couldn't really care whether the main characters survived or not.
I eventually got through this novel and then deleted it from my Kindle.

2.0 out of 5 stars The twos have it with me 26 Oct 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I always like to read the customer reviews before ordering and I was intrgued by the ones posted for this book. As opinions swung between five stars and one or two stars I had to read it for myself. Having got through it my vote comes down on two stars as I too find that the plot lacks credibility.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Trespass 23 April 2013
By Fflur
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
A story about the search for Noah's Ark - for different reasons. Also a search for a missing child involved with the Ark's protection.
Plenty of action from beginning to end. So much so that it was difficult to remember that the regularly battered hero was British. Not believable, but exciting and a solid read. I have bought another Scott Hunter book as a result.

2.0 out of 5 stars The Trespass 24 Mar 2013
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Started off ok, and was well enough written, but I guess the author is a creationist because the storyline became increasingly ridiculous. Adam and Eve, the Garden of Eden complete with the Tree of Life, and even the voice of God - come on! I thought this was 'An Archaeological Mystery Thriller', not propaganda by a member of the God Squad. Disappointing.

This story is just a link of stupid events leading up to the retrieval of the archaeologist's kidnapped daughter. At times it is really just a joke.

The ancients divided the human frame into seven parts; the head, the chest, the stomach, two hands and two feet; and man’s life was divided into seven periods.
