Blood Tracks - OUT NOW!

Blood Tracks - the first in a band new series from Matt Hilton

Introducing private investigator Tess Grey and Southern renegade ex-con Nicolas 'Po' Villere in the first of a brand-new series of fast-paced action thrillers. When her local District Attorney offers her a considerable sum of money to track down state witness Crawford Wynne, private investigator Tess Grey is in no position to refuse. Wynne is one of the few men still alive who can help the State nail vicious drug lord Alberto Suarez. But Tess is not the only one trying to track Wynne down. Suarez's psychotic brother Hector has been hunting and butchering anyone who is a danger to his brother. Tess needs help and there's only one man she can turn to: Southern renegade ex-con Nicolas Villere, known to all as Po. Po always gets his man, but he has never been teamed with a woman before. Both have their own agenda for taking on this case, and neither fully trusts the other. But of one thing they are sure: if they don't cover each other's backs, they are both going to die.

Time Flies When You're Having Fun

TEMPUS: The Phoenix Man by Matt Hilton

High-concept, speculative fiction all delivered in a rip-roaring action adventure, from the best-selling author of the Joe Hunter thrillers. 

What if everything we thought we understood about the nature of time was wrong? 

In the nuclear devastated landscape of London, James Rembrandt delivers law and order with a firm hand and uncompromising resolve. In his violent world it takes a violent man when dealing with cannibalistic scavengers. But Rembrandt was never born to the hellish Old City: he is a man out of time and place, but even he doesn’t know it. 

When he is snatched from death, and deposited in an alternate time and dimension, he has finally come home. But he has returned to a place alien to him, and a world suddenly on the verge of destruction when a wormhole tethered between dimensions begins merging both Earths. Our world is about to be consumed, and the future of mankind relies on Rembrandt. He must again transvect, this time to avert the war that destroyed his parallel world, and seal the planet destroying breaches. He has already died once: he could die again. But what is one man’s worth compared to that of billions?

REVIEWS FOR SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST: 
“Of the four volumes thus far, Survival of the Fittest is arguably the 
most cohesive, certainly the most enjoyable for me to read. Every story 
was well-chosen; every author represented by solid, engaging storytelling, 
and every conclusion (even to those stories that are part of 
continuing narratives) inevitable and, at the same time, wonderfully 
surprising.” 
—Dr Michael R. Collings 

“Very enjoyable and well worth reading.” 
—Hellnotes 

“This anthology takes what’s expected from the genre and turns it 
into the strangest, most bad-ass mix of military horror stories in the 
best way possible.”

THE DEVIL'S ANVIL - Joe Hunter 10 - 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.

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.”
