Det Hemliga Andra Världskriget - Spioner, Specialoperationer Och Underrättelseverksamhet 1939-1945
Upptäck andra världskrigets hemligheter och mysterier! I Det hemliga andra världskriget berättas en rad fascinerande, tidigare dolda, historier bakom det första verkligt högteknologiska kriget. Den globala storkonflikten präglades av pansarvagnar, slagskepp och stridsflygplan. Samtidigt sporrade den utvecklingen av avancerad topphemlig teknologi. Spionage-, radio-, radar- och krypteringsteknik, såväl som motståndsrörelser, sabotörer, vapenforskningsprogram och specialoperationer beskrivs och utforskas här in i minsta detalj. I boken förklaras idéerna bakom de hemliga vapnen och vilken påverkan dessa hade på krigsutgången. Några av dem, som Hitlers mirakelvapen och Manhattanprojektet, skulle komma att förändra världen för all framtid. Boken är rikt illustrerad med figurer, kartor och fotografier från arkiven efter alla betydande aktörer, både inom de allierade styrkorna och axelmakterna. GAVIN MORTIMER är en prisbelönt och bästsäljande författare till flera böcker om andra världskriget. Det hemliga andra världskriget är hans första bok på svenska.

David Stirling: The Phoney Major: The Life, Times and Truth about the Founder of the SAS
Aristocrat, gambler, innovator and special forces legend, the life of David Stirling should need no retelling. His formation of the Special Air Service in the summer of 1941 led to a new form of warfare and Stirling is remembered as the father of special forces soldiering. But was he really a military genius or in fact a shameless self-publicist who manipulated people, and the truth, for this own ends? In this gripping and controversial biography Gavin Mortimer analyses Stirling's complex character: the childhood speech impediment that shaped his formative years, the pressure from his overbearing mother, his fraught relationship with his brother, Bill, and the jealousy and inferiority he felt in the presence of his SAS second-in-command, the cold-blooded killer Paddy Mayne. Stirling lived until old age, receiving a knighthood and plaudits from military forces around the world before his death in 1990. Yet as Mortimer dazzlingly shows, while Stirling was instrumental in selling the SAS

Blake Och Mortimer - Septimusvågen
En tid efter händelserna i Det gula tecknet samlas en grupp ur den brittiska societeten till ett hemligt möte. De är anhängare av professor Septimus idéer, den galne vetenskapsmannen vars terrordåd höll London i ett järngrepp några månader tidigare. Nu vill de föra Septimus arv vidare och söker efter en lämplig försökskanin.Professor Mortimer är i sin tur övertygad om att det går att använda Septimus spektakulära Megavåg inom den medicinska forskningen och har därför i hemlighet återskapat den märkliga Telecefaloskopet i sitt laboratorium. Men oförklarliga störningar stoppar experimenten och Mortimer frågar kapten Blake om råd. Denne ber i stället Mortimer hjälpa honom med att finna orsaken till ett mystiskt dödsfall som inträffat vid King s Cross. Samtidigt, inte långt därifrån, dyker det upp en figur i plommonstop, som med monoton stämma upprepar ett och samma namn: Guinea Pig.
