The Armageddon Trade

The Armageddon Trade (2009) (ISBN 978-1-84243-297-6) is a financial thriller published by No Exit Press.

Plot

Jim, a cockney tea boy, possesses an uncanny ability to understand and interpret stock market trading, and becomes phenomenon in the world of finance. An established and enigmatic trader, Max Davas, uses a powerful computer trading system that has made him very wealthy, but now this forecasting is telling him that the entire global financial system will collapse in a year. The book delves into the theme of whether the forecasts will come true, or if the new trading phenomenon is integral in changing the outcome.

The Twain Maxim

The Twain Maxim (2010) (ISBN 978-1-84243-341-6) is the second financial thriller by Chambers, published by No Exit Press. [2] The book's title pays homage to the classic Mark Twain quote: "A mine is a hole in the ground with a fool at the bottom and a crook at the top."

The launch of the book coincided with the 100th anniversary of Mark Twain's death.

Kusanagi

Kusanagi (2011) is the third 'Jim Evans' title by Clem Chambers. Like his other novels, it is published by No Exit Press.

Reviews of the book were favourable, calling it "compelling," "slick," "authentic" and "superb". Brian Ritterspark of Crime Time said of the book: "the ingredients are all in place for a colourful blockbuster thriller, freighted with the kind of authentic detail that is Chambers spécialité la maison — and Kusangi (although it is not a book with any notable nuance) is truly kinetic entertainment".

The First Horseman

The First Horseman (2013) (ISBN 978-1842436547) The fourth book in the acclaimed 'Jim Evans' thriller series has a strong medical slant. The novel focuses on the themes of immortality and overpopulation, and what might happen if we had the ability to turn the human body clock back.

The Shrine

The Shrine (2016) A return to Japan for the fifth instalment of the Jim Evans series. The Kindle edition book is based on the legend of the Shrine Zenkoji and Jim Evans' attempts to discover its secrets.
