The Chemical Reaction

The plot is complex, intelligent and carefully developed and features just the right blend of suspense and mystery, explosions and gorgeous male strippers, theft of multi-million dollar artworks and five-star dining in interesting locations…

Forbes

An absolutely fast and furious action adventure story with a stunning female protagonist. Jaq Silver gives Jack Reacher a good run for his money. A rollicking good read.

Staunch Prize Shortlist

‘No one else writes with the knowledge or brio of Erskine.’

Literary Review

‘Never a dull moment, this is a whip-smart, action packed, intriguing read that has the reader rooting for Jaq, a thoroughly modern and engaging warrior… Highly recommended.’

Mystery People

‘The Chemical Reaction – a taut against-the-clock cliffhanging yarn located in China – is every bit as good as its Chernobyl predecessor, with trademark Erskine flourishes augmented by dodgy art auctions and disappearing chemical factories… If you’re looking for a really good thriller that is complex and exciting, get in on the Jaq Silver action now. You won’t be disappointed.’

Swansea Bay magazine

‘The book keeps the reader guessing throughout…and the fast pace of the thriller makes it difficult to put down.’
