''Hunter'' portrays the actions of Oscar Yeager, a Vietnam Veteran F4 Phantom pilot and Washington D.C. -area Defense Department consultant who embarks on a plan of targeted Assassinations of racially-mixed couples and public figures advocating racial Civil Rights in the D.C. area. Yeager's activities quickly lead to broad national repercussions and draw him into the plans of both a white nationalist group and an amibitious FBI official to take advantage of the turmoil he has helped to start. ''Hunter'' shares with ''The Turner Diaries'' Pierce's depiction of the United States as overrun by liberalism and Covertedly Dominated by Jews . His depictions of, and the attitudes of the protagonists towards, Jews, African-Americans, Latinos, and Asians mirror Pierce's and the National Alliance's ideology. It is notable that ''Hunter'', as compared to ''The Turner Diaries'', reveals more didactically and directly this ideology than did ''The Turner Diaries''. Throughout the book, the protagonist, with whom the reader was likely intended to identify with vicariously, is gradually developing his ideology and perspectives during his campaign and through contact with the allies that he meets. PLOT The story is presumably set in either the late 1980s or early 1990s. It begins with Yeager in the middle of his campaign of assassination, initially gunning down racially mixed couples in parking lots, before escalating to more sophisticated methods against higher-profile targets, including prominent journalists and politicians. At the same time, Yeager and his girlfriend are developing connections with a white nationalist group of which an office accquaintance of Yeager's is a member. After several successful and increasingly ambitious attacks, Yeager is found and confronted by a senior agent of the FBI who himself is disgusted with "Jewish control" of the FBI and the American social situation. This agent blackmails Yeager into assisting him with his career by assassinating several Jewish FBI agents and targeting Israeli Mossad agents in the US so that the agent is appointed as the new head of a newly-formed Antiterrorist secret-police agency, can assume increasing control of the United States, and can use his power to challenge and remove Jewish control of the government and media. At the same time, Yeager's white nationalist group is achieving greater and greater prominent through the insertion of one of their members into a Christian Evangelist television broadcasting ministry, from which he is broadcasting increasingly racially-conscious and anti-Jewish messages. Yeager's campaign of assassination and terrorism, the actions of copycats and imitators, the white nationalist broadcasting effort, the efforts of the antiterrorist official and a rapid decline of the US economy all work to push the United States towards increasing racial and social violence and fragmentation. Eventually, Yeager is faced with a dilemma when the government official for whom he has been working finally orders him to kill the undercover evangelist minister, whose efforts oppose the agent's intent to establish order and strike a temporary bargain with the Jews. Yeager attempts to avoid, and then to appear to bungle the assassination. At this point, Yeager is caught between the intentions of his government confederate, who intends to consolidate his own power and control over the government and reform the system from withn after suppressing upcoming Black Nationalist riots; and the white-nationalist group who wishes to stir up the chaos even further, draw white Americans into battle, and eventually overthrow the government. Ultimately, Yeager kills the government agent. Ultimately, the Jewish-controlled media side with the black rioters when the riots come, revealing that the government official would have been double-crossed had he attempted to strike his deal. Yeager and the other members of the group, now under increasing government scrutiny, resolve to continue their efforts and to go "underground" to continue the fight against the system.
