Chris Kuzneski: The Einstein Pursuit

A lab destroyed. An explosion in Stockholm claims the lives of an elite collection of scientists. Evidence suggests the blast was designed to eliminate all traces of their research.It's up to Interpol director Nick Dial to uncover the truth about the lab and the attack. A scientist on the run. When Dr Mattias Sahlberg learns of the incident, he knows his life is at risk. He turns to the only men he can trust: Jonathon Payne and David Jones. Together, they must save Sahlberg from the unknown forces that want him dead.

This is the eighth instalment of the Payne and Jones thrillers, and it is as pacy, snappy and funny as all the others. Kuzneski really does not disappoint. "Like a young Chris Kuzneski" could have been so easily overlooked, but that is what makes the Kuzneski novels. Payne and Jones are devilish agents with a great sense of humour, which they need to cope with the devastation they always encounter. This time, we got to know the interpol staff a bit better, too, which added greatly to the light-heartedness of the thriller.
