What if someone created a scale to be stamped on the outside of every product, financial and otherwise…. A scale for the consumer….A scale that rated the value of every like product on a scale of one to ten against each other….A scale to be taken up by the E.U. to put the consumer in control. No more tricks to fool you – no more picking your way through the deliberately confusing offers of competing phone or utility companies and banks, in the slim chance you’ve obtained the best deal. No more scouring supermarket shelves only to discover the ‘Value Pack’, is no value at all! No more cynical games. How would big business react? Would someone kill…to kill the Scale? When American TV journalism student, Rick Devan, discovers the body of his neighbour and friend, Professor Milo Ferretti, he is suddenly caught up in a rollercoaster of danger, assassination and international pursuit. When his vivacious niece Sophia, his only living relative, learns she has inherited Milo’s work, people begin dying.

Jane Chipperfield read Classical Civilisation at Warwick University, going on to enjoy a twenty-year career as a Primary School teacher. She left teaching to explore other opportunities, initially studying at Sotheby's Institute in London.
After her time at Sotheby's, Jane devised, wrote and presented a series of short programmes for schools. Designed to interest young children in the art that is accessible in Britain, the films give insight by telling background stories relating to pieces featured in U.K. collections.
The last few years have been taken up with writing; initially compiling and editing weekly news pages for websites as well as copywriting.
Her novel, Milo's Scale, is the first in a trilogy of thrillers featuring Rick Devan. Devan's Debt is the second with Aldo’s Spear, the final book in the trilogy.
