After being put through military bootcamp and taught how to handle weapons for his role, he decided to do further research and soon fell in love with works of military history. He then turned his hand to writing and, in order to shape his first Ryan Drake thriller - Redemption - visited weapon ranges all over America and Eastern Europe, becoming something of an arms expert.

Written at breakneck pace, complete with extensive firefights and brutal weaponry, this is a heart-stopper for anyone who likes plenty of action and explosions. Daily Mail Another assured book in this compelling series, with thrills, spills and skulduggery at the highest levels of the U.S. security departments. Packed with high-octane action scenes and perfectly placed militaristic detail there is much to entertain any reader of this genre. Raven Crime Reads - A high-octane and fast paced tale of derring-do set in the world of elite investigation and black-ops that had me hooked throughout... One of the strongest aspects of this book is Jordan's grasp of characterisation as Drake is a compelling and empathetic protagonist... Overall a very creditable debut and bodes well for a long running series featuring this new action-hero. --Raven Crime Reads
