Sam Harris breaks into the male-dominated adventure genre, and creates a unique one all her ownPeople told me I’d never get a job in exploration geology because I’m a woman. It’s 1987 and I thought that sort of attitude went out with the Ark. More fool me. Just when I suspected they might be right, I met Mike Morton, a notoriously flaky entrepreneur, who offered me work in Sierramar on South America’s west coast. He can’t afford to pay me, but he’s offered me shares in his company. I know the chance of a pay-out is slim, but the experience on my resume will be priceless.
During my first weeks in Sierramar, I’ve improved my Spanish and I’ve made friends with a nutty rich girl who drives like Fangio. I’ve even met a real-life treasure hunter. I’m off to the jungle soon to start my geology career and have an adventure. My companion’s a bit creepy, but I’ll cope, and who knows what we might discover?
Can I trust my colleagues, or will my first adventure have a fatal conclusion?If you like a well written yarn with intelligent female protagonists, exotic locations, and complex characters, then you'll love PJ Skinner's enthralling adventure.

The author has spent 30 years working as an exploration geologist managing remote sites and doing due diligence of projects in more than thirty countries. During this time she has been collecting tall tales and real-life experiences which inspired her to write the Sam Harris Series chronicling the adventures of a female geologist as a pioneer in a hitherto exclusively male world. PJ has worked in various countries in South America and Africa in remote, strange and often dangerous places and loved every minute of it despite encountering her fair share of misogyny and other perils. She is now writing these fact-based adventure books from the relative safety of London but still travels all over the world collecting data for her writing.The Sam Harris Adventure Series is composed of seven books which follow the misadventures of a female geologist in the 1980s and 1990s as she struggles with new cultures and old prejudices.The author is also working on two other new books, one of which, Rebel Green, is based on her childhood in Ireland.Please subscribe to the mailing list on the website for updates.I would really appreciate it if you could take the time to review my books.
