Overview: Simon grew up in Sussex. After graduating from Southampton University with a degree in economics, he spent sixteen years in the Royal Air Force and was the first RAF pilot to fly the Mirage 2000 on operations over Iraq while on exchange with the French Air Force. Leaving the Service with the rank of Squadron Leader, he worked in the City of London as a derivatives broker and in various technology roles before becoming a director of a leading financial software company. His passion for history, languages and archaeology have come together to create Flora Kemble, Oxford University palaeographer and heroine of his first novel, The Seven Stars, an adult thriller that weaves a tale of deception and murder stretching from ancient Rome to the present day. Simon is a member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists and splits his time between work in the UAE and a far more relaxing time with his wife, Wendy – also a Mauve Square author – with their two cats at home in south-west France.

The Manhattan Deception
Strike a deal with the Devil or send one million men to their deaths? This is the choice facing Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill in March 1945. The Manhattan Project is behind schedule and will not produce the A-Bomb until 1947. Without it, the invasion of mainland Japan will become a bloody reality. Two German scientists, the only men whose knowledge can deliver the doomsday weapon, are in Berlin and about to fall into the hands of the advancing Soviet armies. In their desperation, the Allied leaders agree to pay a terrible price. Their Faustian pact returns from the ashes to haunt the career of present-day US Presidential candidate, Eric Pauli. Someone, maybe Pauli himself, knows the awful truth and is willing to kill in order to ensure it never sees the light of day.

In a cruel twist of fate, he realises that not only is the past haunting him, but he is haunting the past, and so begins his desperate struggle to return to the safety of the present day.
