The Blood Hike

Former soldier. Deadly enemies. One fight for survival.

In a deadly game of cat and mouse, former Australian Infantry soldier Cable Martin faces his most dangerous mission yet: taking down a rogue faction of ex-Australian Special Forces operatives who will stop at nothing to achieve their twisted goals.

When a chance encounter with an old comrade drags Cable into the shadows of modern crime, he’s targeted by Jack – a ruthless, enigmatic leader forged in the brutal battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq. Jack and his team are expert killers, hardened by war and driven by the hunt – and now they’re coming for Cable.

Outmatched and outgunned, Cable must rely on every ounce of his military training and instincts to survive. But these are no ordinary foes – they are predators who exploit weakness and kill without mercy.

With gritty realism and heart-racing action, The Blood Hike showcases Peter O’Hanlon’s firsthand military experience bringing visceral authenticity and intense military operations vividly to life.

‘A gripping military thriller about loyalty, betrayal, and the fight to stay alive.’

Praise for Peter O’Hanlon’s memoir World War Bloody Timor:

‘A raw and unflinching portrayal of war … visceral and immersive.’
