What’s the right thing to do when your labmates are secretly forced to drug your landlord with your experimental chemical if he unexpectedly falls into a coma and the police ask you for help?

That was the dilemma Kyra faced shortly after starting her post-doctoral research at Brightman University in the western plains of Kansas. When the police decided to ignore critical scientific information and simply investigate her instead, Kyra worked to unravel the mystery herself. To make it through all the twists and turns and ups and downs, she needed help from a mysterious benefactor named Amira, and support from her friend, Aster. But in the end, it was her own hidden talents that made the difference.

You know a book is good when it keeps you up at night! what an interesting twist of stories that feels like solving a puzzle. Amazed by the simplicity of language used to blend important scientific concepts into the story lines. It was also great how this book gives a taste of what's like to be scientists and how their minds are wired. Highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys science fiction.

Well done Roger! You’re a great writer! This book has a lot of characteristics I really like. Not super long, I think it’s got just about the perfect length. It has chemistry in it but not to the point that this can only be followed by chemist. It is a story anyone can enjoy to read, while chemists will like the science part as well. On top of all this, you put a great twist on the whole thing. I kept guessing all along, but that ending is quite surprising and explains everything neatly.
I love your writing style and I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a mystery novel to read!

What a fantastic read. Once I got started I couldn’t put it down. It’s not a long book but somehow the author fits in so many interesting characters and a lot of science in. And the science is both accurate and explained so it’s accessible to everyone. Also, nanopenguins. Outstanding!! I’m going to steal that one.

This book is a whodunnit novel that captivated and educates the reader at the same time. The chemystery is explained in simple language that non-science types can understand.

For a short novel it is well written and moves along at a quick pace. I would have like it to be longer to give the characters more development. (But I just love big books as a matter of course)

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun read and interesting mystery
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2023
This story was an interesting and unique mystery that kept me intrigued all the way through. The suspense started building from the very beginning and kept me engaged until the end. The main character, Kyra, was the right blend of smart and curious and even made a top notch chocolate chip cookie! The science in the book that is at the heart of the story was explained in a way that made it understandable to anybody with or without a science background. The plot was well-paced and kept me engrossed in the story from beginning to end. I fell in love with the characters and would love to see them again in another chemystery!

3.0 out of 5 stars A unique mystery
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 24, 2024

I decided to give this book a try as it sounded different from what I usually read and I was curious about the blend of Chemistry, mystery and crime that I gathered from the blurb. It followed Kyra, one of a team of lab researchers developing a new product called Zeti. When some of the Zeti managed to escape the lab and ended up hospitalising a man, Kyra was brought in for questioning by Detective Deanna and her team.

The parts that I thought worked well were the detailed chemical analysis descriptions that were explained in a clever way, mainly through Kyra being questioned. This made it accessible to a reader like me, who has limited background knowledge of Chemistry. I thought the author made great use of his profession as a Chemist making molecules without the book becoming full of overly complex jargon.

I would have liked more characterisation of Kyra. I think the choice to show her chapters in cinematic point of view, then switching to dialogue-heavy first person, really limited what she was thinking and feeling for me. I would’ve liked it all in first person from her point of view, to get more of her thoughts and fears, but maybe that’s just me.

Overall though it was an interesting and unique kind of story, so I liked it generally.
