Joe Hunter solves problems. Or, as he likes to put it, he's "the weapon sent in when all the planning is done and all that's left is the ass kicking." And as a former military operative and ex-CIA agent, he's good at what he does. But when he's told that his brother—with whom he hasn't been on the best of terms—has disappeared, he learns that everything he's faced before is child's play compared to what's coming.
Tubal Cain is a killer—smart, stealthy, and arrogant—but he's also sentimental. His most precious possession is the set of knives he uses, and when one of them (his favorite Bowie) is stolen along a deserted stretch of highway, Cain will stop at nothing to get it back.
Unfortunately for Hunter, the thief is his brother, a man who has been on the run from his own mistakes but is now in the crosshairs of a seriously deranged man. To find his brother, Hunter must find Cain, and the chase takes all three men on a hair-raising journey across the country to a barren spot in the American Southwest, where bones have become nothing more than dead men's dust.
With its cinematic pacing, nonstop thrills, and strong, charismatic hero, Dead Men's Dust introduces Matt Hilton as a powerful and irresistible new voice in thriller fiction.

Dead Men's Dust
At first, reading the words 'Special Forces', I thought that this book wasn't my type. Blind patriotism, superhero and drawing a line short of killing are usually associated with this description. However, I persisted and kept on reading, and was glad I did so. Joe Hunter's foes here are initially vicious criminals, but the narrative of Joe's brother's story, running parallel, throws up a character of the type I thrive on, an anti-hero that can chill the blood, that has no concience, no morals, and, to top it all is highly skilled and very, very dangerous. A worthy opponent for any action hero.. Pitch the Camel Club and Jack Reacher against the Joker, make the action violent, bloody and fraught with danger and it really works. If there's anything about the book that threw me it was that a British author with a British hero would set the story in the US, but hey, who am I to argue, half the authors I read and follow have their stories based there and these days most British readers and viewers know the US almost as they do the UK. I've already got the next in the series lined up and Matt is already on my 'signed collections' list. As a 'debut' novel this is one great read. My only crit is that our heroes seem to lose so much blood yet can still walk away.
