The Story Behind This Book
If the first V-2 guided missile that exploded over London on September 8, 1944 had carried an atomic warhead instead of a conventional explosive, a million people might have died instead of three. Historians are still debating about why the Nazi program failed even though they had competent physicists, government support and the early lead in nuclear energy. Asked why he chose to write about the Nazi bomb, author G Dedrick Robinson said, “The Nazis are known for developing miracle weapons. Yet their atomic bomb program, the one weapon that could have won the war for them, completely fizzled. After extensive research trying to understand why, I thought the story had all the makings for an exciting novel.” Scheduled for a July 1 release by Salvo Press, The Seventh Deception is the first novel to directly explore the German atomic bomb project. Dr. Robinson builds the plot around a provocative new theory explaining why Hitler's nuclear program met with far less success than the programs that put jet aircraft and rockets in the sky well before anyone else. Under the leadership of Nobel Laureate Warner Heisenberg, the Nazis take the early lead in nuclear research. Berlin physicist and British agent Anton Breker, realizes that he must try to slow their progress by steering Heisenberg down blind alleys. He has to walk a fine line as he works to subvert Nazi research by day, while at night, making love to his best friend's wife. After Heisenberg discovers the most dangerous nuclear secret of the war, Breker faces his greatest challenge, keeping him from revealing it to the Nazi hierarchy.
