OMG....right now that I am actually remembering to breath and my pounding heart beat has returned to its normal rate,I now feel calm enough to write my review of this fast paced,action packed,gripping thriller.

It should have been a routine job.Joe Hunter and his associates are hired to provide security for an elite event in Miami.Wear a tux,stay professional,don't get into any trouble,job done.

But trouble seems to follow Joe Hunter around like a very faithful dog or a very bad smell.

Hunter is drawn into what appears to be a domestic altercation.After he crosses the mysterious Mikhail however Hunter soon finds that this chance encounter will have serious repercussions for him and his friends.Soon good people are being killed,and Joe finds himself on the run,in the line of fire and rapidly running out of time.

This heart pounding,action thriller is narrated by Joe Hunter and a number of other characters including Joe's friend Rink.Joe's chapters are voiced in the first person pov while the other chapters are voiced in the third.It's a fast paced,roller coaster ride that rockets along at a rapid pace and is packed full of gun battles,has car and boat chases,evil,twisted villains,likeable heroes,there's even a feisty,gutsy female thrown into the mix.

Although I haven't read any of the other books in this series that didn't spoil my enjoyment of this book,it can be read and enjoyed as a stand alone.I would love to watch a film adaptation of this book or a tv series based on Joe Hunters adventures.I really really enjoyed this gripping thriller.luckily for me I have eleven more Joe Hunter books to catch up on.

Marked For Death by Matt Hilton is a fantastic thriller which throws you into the deep end from the start and doesn't let you go. His narrative of the places where events take place come alive and make you feel you are watching an unfolding movie and are along for the ride with Hunter. Whilst action packed from start to page turning finish, it is about the times we now live in and the very real threats from terrorism, of which the detail is current. Not only does the reader feel a part of the often heart-stopping journey but also the camaraderie, friendship and that life is never black and white. 
You won't regret buying this little beauty!

From start to finish this is a full on, high speed, non stop, action packed, totally absorbing, crime thriller. Joe Hunter soon becomes involved in trouble after  protecting Trey from her violent corrupt husband Mikhail, resulting in Mikhail going all out for revenge on Joe Hunter and Trey.  Joe has to get Trey to a safe place before dealing with Mikhail, not that straightforward when Joe Hunter is involved. As the story unfolds there's a lot more to this plot resulting in Joe and Rink and a few others on a mission to foil a terrorist attack led by Mikhail and his criminal gang.  I loved the bits of banter, I cringed at the merciless,  but sometimes well deserved, killings and was rooting for the good guys on every tense and gripping page.  Everything you'd expect from Matt Hilton and it doesn't disappoint...  once again,  he's delivered another brilliant book.
