Nuclear Dawn
This book provides a rounded biography of Franz (later Sir Francis) Simon, his early life in Germany, his move to Oxford in 1933, and his experimental contributions to low temperature physics approximating absolute zero. After 1939 he switched his research to nuclear physics, and is credited with solving the problem of uranium isotope separation by gaseous diffusion for the British nuclear programme Tube Alloys. The volume is distinctive for its inclusion of source materials not available to previous researchers, such as Simon's diary and his correspondence with his wife, and for a fresh, well-informed insider voice on the five-power nuclear rivalry of the war years. The work also draws on a relatively mature nuclear literature to attempt a comparison and evaluation of the five nuclear rivals in wider political and military context, and to identify the factors, or groups of factors, that can explain the results.

The Linden Tree
There was something extraordinarily familiar about the girl in the photograph, Alison Maxwell thought, though she couldn’t for a moment give her a name. And then she realized that the features were almost the same as her own . . . ‘You’re not by any means identical,’ Nicolas said, ‘but superficially there’s a strong resemblance. If you wore her clothes, you could easily pass for her.’ Alison knew, with a sudden sick certainty, what he was asking her to do. He watched her steadily, unsmiling. ‘For a short period – say twenty-four hours – I want you to change places with Elizabeth.’ It was a preposterous suggestion. But Alison, an out-of-work actress and deeply in debt, knew that she couldn’t refuse. And Nicolas made it sounds so easy . . . But then, as Alison was soon to discover, he had told her only part of the truth. When she assumed the role of Elizabeth, she knew loneliness and fear – her life was in danger and Nicolas was responsible. Too late, she asked herself a number of questions: just how well did she know Nicolas Allen? Could she trust him to rescue her? Could she trust him at all?
