First hand anecdotal snap shots offer a taste of daily life during
the author's fifteen-year period at the High Down and Woomera
rocket test sites. The preparation of eight Black Knight and four
Black Arrow rockets up to their liftoff are recounted in detail
with relevant diagrams and a few photos. So-called "rocket-science"
jargon is deliberately sidestepped throughout. Delays that dogged
Black Arrow's birth are touched along with a full explanation for
terminating RO's maiden flight. Peripheral issues met during the
final two proving flights are also discussed. The launch team's
bittersweet feelings as R3 was readied and lifted off to deliver
Prospero into earth orbit are chronicled alongside their dismay at
the projects unfitting end. Black Arrow was Britain's only home
grown rocket to stage an orbital insertion and may also be the only
rocket to achieve this using peroxide oxidiser.

'I love her beautiful settings and brooding heroes!' Sarah Bennett
Who can resist the romance of Venice... When Norah arrives in
Venice for a ten-week internship she is surprised to discover that
her guide for her work trips around the lagoon is the undeniably
gorgeous and kind Gianluca. She can't help thinking he might be too
good to be true, with his endless fascinating local stories, and
his infectious laugh. Norah is still bitter after an accident left
her with a serious injury and also meant the end of her long-term
relationship. And besides, she's serious about her career and that
means leaving Venice at the end of the summer. Gianluca has had a
summer fling before that led to heartache for him and he won't do
it again. He enjoys the long hours out on the lagoon with Norah,
but after a storm strands them on a picture-perfect island for a
night, they agree they should just be good friends for the summer.
But life doesn't always go to plan, and when it's time for Norah to
go, they have to decide whether what they have between them is
really just a friendship, and not something more... Leonie Mack is
back with another fabulously romantic escape, perfect for all fans
of Mandy Baggot, Jo Thomas and Carole Matthews. What readers are
saying about Leonie Mack: 'I read a lot of romance books and I have
to say this book is one of the best in terms of chemistry. Readers
- we're talking red hot!' 'A hot and sizzling read!' 'An uplifting,
intelligent novel with a lot of substance and of course, plenty of
romance' 'I can't stop thinking about this book!' 'Beautifully
written, this is a great take on the opposites attract theme.' 'A
delight to read with lots of fun, romance and funny bits along the
way.'
