Publisher's Summary

It is 1936, and Simon Travis, just 32 years old and the only son and heir to the family's incredible fortune, has just become the fourth-richest man in the world following the sad and unexpected death of his father.

Simon is not really interested in running the vast business empire, and instead he arranges a meeting with the man his father most admired—Winston Churchill.

Fearing war, and wanting to do what he can to help, Simon decides to use his incredible wealth to set up a team of top research designers and engineers to come up with the very best ideas in technology to offer the country.

Recruiting the best young brains he can find, and a team of highly experienced operatives to carry out the missions, Simon and Winston work together in secret on numerous projects throughout the six years of the Second World War.
