On 22 July 2012 Chris Froome made history as the first African-born cyclist to stand on the podium at the Tour de France. Ten days later at the London Olympic Games he won a bronze medal in the time trial for his adopted nation in Team GB colours. Froome s path to professional cycling, from mountain biking on dusty roads in the nature reserves of Kenya s Great Rift Valley
- alongside wild animals
- to the giddy heights of the Tour de France & the Olympics, has been unlike any other in the history of the sport. Born in Nairobi to British parents he was schooled in South Africa & studied economics at university. But he abandoned his degree to take up the offer of a professional cycling contract in Europe. A fish out of water, unused to the harsh northern hemisphere winters, with no idea of the tactics, discipline or etiquette of riding in the professional peloton, Froome encountered a shock entrance into the rough & tumble world of top level European bike racing. But miraculously, within two years he d signed for the biggest professional cycling team in the world British Cycling supremo David Brailsford s Team Sky finished second overall in the Tour of Spain by only 14 seconds & sacrificed his own ambitions to help team-mate Bradley Wiggins become the first British cyclist to win the Tour de France.

Product Description

Rudi Graf used to dream of sending a rocket to the moon. Instead, he has helped to create the world's most sophisticated weapon: the V2 ballistic missile, capable of delivering a one-ton warhead at three times the speed of sound.

In a desperate gamble to avoid defeat in the winter of 1944, Hitler orders ten thousand to be built. Graf is tasked with firing these lethal 'vengeance weapons' at London.

Kay Caton-Walsh is an officer in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force who joins a unit of WAAFs on a mission to newly liberated Belgium. Armed with little more than a slide rule & a few equations, Kay & her colleagues will attempt to locate & destroy the launch sites.

As the death toll soars, Graf & Kay fight their grim, invisible war
- until one final explosion of violence causes their destinies to collide.. .
