In 3 Wise Men, James Hayden takes a formula that's been tried and tested by Dan Brown, turns it on its head and brings in an edge-of-seat thriller based on fact and markedly better than any of Brown's thin and insubstantial efforts. This is a classic thriller with fairly short chapters, which is always good, punchy, gritty realism, gloriously exotic locations and chapter endings that leave you hanging - another tried and tested formula that began with Edgar Rice Burroughs back at the turn of the last century. Thrillers don't come much better than this - huge fun and very entertaining! (booksmonthlyreviews.wordpress.com). This contemporary thriller follows Jak Colins, a scientist who flies to Milan to share his priceless scientific discovery - based on a genuine 4,000 year old manuscript. He soon becomes the object of jealous rivals who take drastic measures to unlock his secret and disrupt a multi-billion dollar industry. Who are the 3 Wise Men, and how can they ensure that Jak's formula remains in safe hands?
