Joe Hunter Hits San Francisco With All Guns Blazing

Those great guys at DOWN AND OUT BOOKS continue to bring Joe Hunter's adventures to the USA, with the release of Joe Hunter 8 - RULES OF HONOR - in both Ebook and paperback on 1st June 2015. This edition is only available to readers in the USA.




When Rink’s father is murdered, Joe Hunter vows to help his friend avenge his brutal death. Rink’s mother Yukiko isn’t talking, her silence governed by the Bushido tradition of giri, or moral obligation. But other people known to Yukiko are also dying, all due to a shameful secret from their past that Hunter must uncover if he hopes to end the murders. To do that rules must be broken, and Hunter doesn’t care what he must break to stop the killer. 

“The action scenes are immaculately described...and even the shades of grey are murkier than ever. An excellent starting point to the dark and dangerous world of Joe Hunter.” 
—crimereview.co.uk 

“A rip-snorting novel which is fast paced, exciting and yet self-aware enough to address its own belief system.” 
—Graham Smith, author of Snatched From Home 

“...Hilton drives pace faster than The Stig...” 
—crimesquad.com 

“...grows at a steady pace and to be honest even though there’s more than enough action and killing to satisfy the most ardent action reader throughout the course of the book it plays second fiddle to the reason for the deaths, something I enjoyed more than any of Matt’s previous books...this for me is a more thoughtful adventure in avengement and plot building, the combination of both helps deliver a more mature action thriller.” 
—milorambles.com 

“Sharp and hard hitting...Matt doesn’t allow himself to get complacent, but continually delves deeper into the psyche of Joe...Fast-paced, action-filled and completely addictive, Matt shows his continuing maturity as a writer with an exhilarating ride that still maintains humour and wit.”

The Devil's Anvil is Nigh

The Devil's Anvil - the tenth staggering Joe Hunter thriller - will soon hit the shelves and E-readers far and wide. It's just a little over a fortnight until the official publication date on 4th June 2015. I know some of my readers have been eagerly anticipating Hunter's return, being fifteen months since we last saw him in The Lawless Kind. I hope the wait has been worth it.

Available for pre-order now on Kindle and in hardcover 

The DEVIL'S ANVIL by Matt Hilton

Accepting the task of protecting Billie Womack is a no-brainer for ex-counterterrorist soldier Joe Hunter, but it comes with its own set of complications. 


Billie's husband, Richard, stole thirty million dollars from some violent people. He apparently died in a car crash with Billie's daughter, Nicola, during a desperate attempt to elude his pursuers. But his enemies don't believe him dead. They think he escaped the plunge into the icy river that killed Nicola and has now decided to come back for the money. If he's alive, they believe he'll contact Billie. 



It doesn't take long for the bad guys to arrive at her remote farmhouse. Soon she and Joe are fugitives. Dead or alive, Richard's fate means nothing to Hunter, but he promises to do everything in his power to protect the grieving mother. Even if it means taking a bullet for her, it's a price he'll pay. 



It's a pledge he will come to regret, as he learns that killers are forged on the Devil's anvil.

BLOOD TRACKS - The First in a Brand New Thriller Series from Matt Hilton

Earlier this year I mentioned I was holding off on some good news until all my ducks were in a row, papers signed and the news could be made official. Well, I'm very happy to announce that those lovely people at Severn House Publishers will be publishing a brand new thriller series from me, featuring new characters Tess Grey and Nicolas "Po" Villere. The first in this brand new action-packed series is called BLOOD TRACKS and will be available in the UK in November this year, and in the USA (and rest of the world) next Spring. Joe Hunter fans will love this new series, and hopefully it will garner a new readership too. On the subject of everyone's favourite vigilante, fear not. This is not a departure from Hunter's adventures. Hunter will continue too. So if you enjoy my books, rejoice, because I'll be back to (at least) 2 books a year from here on in.
