Three Miles Down, a witty adventure story by James Hamilton-Paterson, is a
stirring tale of high tech and deep water, as a group of British “buccaneers”
team up with Soviet scientists to salvage a fortune in sunken Second World War
gold. As valuable for its psychological insights as its scientific information.
Published by Jonathan Cape, £16.99, ISBN 022404267X.
