The Fourth Richest Man in the World

It is 1936, and Simon Travis, just 32 years old and the only son and heir to the families incredible fortune, has just become the fourth richest man in the world on 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.
