When two mysterious deaths are dismissed as deadly snakebites, Police Inspector Raini Wijesuriya notices a disturbing connection: the same yellow smiling-face sticker has been left at both scenes.

Her investigation leads back to “Case S,” a buried crime involving powerful figures, hidden evidence and a secret known as Project Smile. As Raini moves closer to the truth, those connected to the past begin to realise that someone is hunting them—one by one.

Blending crime, mystery, psychological suspense, action, romance and dark humour, THE HUNT follows a dangerous battle between an intelligent investigator, a calculating masked hunter and influential people determined to keep the truth hidden.
