The Chemical Code cover

A feminist James Bond-style thriller for fans of Killing Eve

Amid the heat of Brazil, explosives expert Jaq Silver has one goal – vengeance. When her enemies take what she treasures most, she will do anything to make them pay. But a series of betrayals leave Jaq unsure of those she can trust, and she realises she’ll need to complete the mission solo. And as everyone hunts down the same mysterious box, Jaq becomes increasingly embroiled in a web of far-reaching consequences. It seems there’s a hidden agenda, but can Jaq be sure she is chasing down the right target? And who is pursuing her?

 ‘Jaq is quickly drawn into a vortex of action, danger and exotic locations.’

‘This book has it all. Phenomenal world-building. Totally original plot. Fascinating and insightful social commentary. Love. Sex. Punch-ups. There's nothing not to like. Jaq Silver is undoubtedly the best character I've met in years.’ 

-- Emma Christie, author of The Silent Daughter

'A page-turning rollercoaster. Intelligent, exciting, and so much bang for your buck that it's scary.'

-- Judith O'Reilly

'A 21st-century reinterpretation of classic 007-style action, villainy, exotic location and pretzel plotting... a genuine goldmine of a thriller.'
