Synopsis

"Matt Hilton delivers a thrill a minute. Awesome!"
--Chris Ryan, author of Who Dares Win

"Lee Child's Jack Reacher could have some worthy competition."
--Booklist

Fans of Lee Child, Jeffery Deaver, Robert Crais, John Sandford, and Michael Connelly have a new hero to root for: author Matt Hilton's former military Special Forces operative-turned-problem solver, Joe Hunter. Slash and Burn is the third electrifying thriller in the Hunter series, as the emotional stakes are raised to the limit when he and his new lady love set out to find her missing sister and run head-first into a maniacal Texas millionaire sadist with shady allegiances, a serious bloodlust, and his own private army. Like Dead Men's Dust and Judgment and Wrath, Hilton's previous Joe Hunter page-turners, Slash and Burn provides action to the nth degree, and powerfully supports the contention of California's Contra Costa Times that, "Hunter is one of the most exciting new tough guys to come along in years."

About this title

Review:

If you like the Jack Reacher books, you'll love Hilton's series . . . Action-packed from start to finish (Heat on SLASH & BURN)

Joe Hunter is fast becoming a serious rival to Jack Reacher in the action stakes . . . SLASH AND BURN is the kind of novel that grabs you by the scruff of the neck and drags you along at breakneck pace before finally throwing you down exhilarated, breathless and screaming for more. The prose is sparse and so tightly wound it is impossible to turn the pages fast enough, making it a definite read-in-one-sitting novel . . . [Hunter] is an excellent character who is developing more and more as Hilton's confidence as an author grows. (crimesquad.com)

A hell-for-leather tale that spins your head around like a mad fairground Waltzer ride. Eat your heat out, Jason Bourne. (Peterborough Evening Telegraph)

Matt Hilton delivers another hardcore, action-packed gritfest featuring a cold-blooded killer with a heart of gold. (Daily Record)

Praise for DEAD MEN'S DUST:
'A dose of pure rocket fuel. Starts fast, gets faster, and doesn't quit right through to the slam bang finale. DEAD MEN'S DUST is as enjoyable a thriller as you will read this year, and I do mean "Thriller!" My ears are still ringing with gunfire! I loved this book.'

(Christopher Reich)

Hard-hitting and fast-paced, I was hooked from start to finish (Simon Kernick)

Vicious, witty and noir, Hilton is a sparkling new talent (Peter James)

Joe Hunter takes you in at the deep end . . . and never lets up. Breathtaking. (Adrian Magson)
