A saga inspired by the incredible but true story of the iconic Klimt paintingPainted in Vienna in 1910, Gustav Klimts Portrait of a Lady was purchased by an anonymous collector in 1916, retouched by the master a year later, then stolen in 1997 before reappearing in the gardens of an Italian modern art museum in 2019.No art experts, museum curators, or police investigators know the identity of the young woman in the painting, nor the mysteries that surround the turbulent history of her portrait. From the streets of Vienna in 1900 to Texas in the 1980s, and from Manhattan during the Great Depression to contemporary Italy, de Peretti imagines the destiny of this young woman as well as that of her descendants, and creates a masterful fresco that intertwines family secrets, disappearances, and thwarted loves.

An unhappy family returns to Britain from a hot country, filling their suburban house with the glittering hoard they brought back from their exotic sojourn. But the sadness of A, the wife, dulls the shine of their treasure. The house grows quieter, darker. Daughter B learns to hide inside it, in a night-time world whose colours are undimmed by the tense misery of the daytime household. There she sails aquamarine seas on a thistledown boat, ponders the proliferation of dream-tigers, and watches dances and celebrations from the windows of a house whose rooms multiply and change position all the time. As daylight circumstances deteriorate, with her mothers death and Bs departure to boarding school, she becomes determined to take up permanent residence in the house of sleep. But there are night-time institutions determined to control her, and night-time battles to be fought, before she can come home to the dark forever. A kaleidoscopic autobiographical narrative, which speaks the language of childhood dreams which was once known to us all, this is a work of astonishing visual power and devastating loneliness.

The Colonels Plute is set in the 1970s and 1980s, when plutonium was thought to be vital to the UKs nuclear energy programme. The book includes short but important appearances by famous people, such as Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, President Ronald Reagan, Tony Benn, and Arthur Scargill, as well as members of the IRA, and Greenpeace, the leading environmentalist group at the time.The story centres, however, upon ordinary people: a family with working links to Sellafield, where much of the UKs plutonium is still stored (until some use is found for it). The head of the family is Sergeant Len Stanton, a policeman, who left the West Midlands with his family for a better paid job with the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority Constabulary; a healthier lifestyle for all of them in the Lake District. Lens wife, Rita, died of cancer, and Len is becoming an increasingly embittered man.Lens son-in-law, Tony Miles, is a process worker working with radioactive materials and married to Jenny. They have a seven-year-old son, Jamie. The boy has leukaemia and is being treated at the world-famous Christie Hospital in Manchester. Jenny is convinced that Jamies condition has been caused by her husbands work. Len begins to think this may be true, persuaded by a local doctor, who has pointed the finger at Sellafield as the cause of a cancer cluster he claims to have identified in a small village close to the sprawling Sellafield site. The doctors claims are picked up by the national press, causing panic among those with children, or expecting them.All of this is of little interest to Gaddafi who is desperate to obtain plutonium, convinced that it will give him more authority at home and the status abroad to help him become a major international, respected figure. He has tried to obtain plutonium from several countries but without success. He turns his attention to Sellafield, which is known to have the biggest stockpile of plutonium in the world. He approaches the IRA for assistance, reminding its leaders that he has provided them with finance and weapons for decades. "Now it is payback time," he tells the IRA representative attending the colonels 25th anniversary celebration of his coup in Libya. Eventually, after a lot of soul searching, a deal is reached.Many of the cases of plute held in the Sellafield plutonium store have been there for decades, and potentially explosive nitrogen gas has built up in them. If this happened, plutonium, in powder form, could spread over the countryside, the government deciding that all the cans must be repackaged. It is not going to be easy. It will involve moving the cans around the Sellafield site and in and out of makeshift storage facilities, providing an obvious opportunity for theft.Len Stanton sees whats going on but turns a blind eye to it. The IRA succeeds in stealing a small amount of plute for the colonel. It is shipped to Libya and promptly impounded as soon as the ship arrives in Libya. The source of the information about its movements is Michael Quinn, thought by Greenpeace to be one of their most enthusiastic supporters (and by the IRA as one of their own silent members).He is in fact employed by Americas Central Intelligence Agency, the CIA. His main contact in Libya is Captain Hassan al-Rida, the colonels aide-de-camp, the leader of a group of young Libyan officers who want Gaddafi removed, dead or alive. They believe he has dissipated his nations oil wealth supporting other countries rather th...
