December Ultimatum
Veteran reporter Matt Franklin liked the thought of a trip to a warm climate in early December--he could escape the northern winter, reassess his marriage, and get the big story that would restore his byline to the front page of The New York Times. But it wouldn't have seemed such an attractive idea if he'd known he was to be drawn back into active service for the CIA and caught in the middle of a revolution. Set in the Middle East, the United States of America and the rough snowbound terrain of England's Lake District, Michael Nicholson's powerful new novel takes place over just four days. But they are four dangerous days in which the balance of world power wavers unsteadily as opposing factions battle for control of Riyadh and Saudi Arabia's oilwells, Whitehall wonders what to do, and an abrasive new US President strives to retain control over the oil his country depends on.

Sir William McCauley was appointed Director of the Famine Relief Programme at a time when hunger raged across Ireland and antipathy towards the plight of the Irish infused the politics of Britain. Kathryn, William's daughter, was forced to join her father, and felt no sympathy until the very scale of the tragedy became all too obvious. Joining the underground, she preached insurrection, stole food for the starving and became the lover of the leader of the rebellion. Known as Dark Rosaleen, the heroine of banned nationalist poem, she was branded both traitor and cause celebré. This is her story.

Visual Language Games
A retrospective look at the life and work of maverick artist Michael Nicholson, theorist, teacher, sculptor, video artist. For much of his career Michael has eschewed the conventional artist trajectory of dealer-branding-annual exhibition-critical recognition, pursuing instead a more individual path of self-imposed rigours as he worked out his relationship with the demands of pictorial and sculptural space. He has, nevertheless, left a footprint of major works in the UK (his birthplace), Australia, Japan and New Zealand. His years of residing and working in Sydney have provided sculptures for public spaces and a record of participation in the Sydney Biennale and other venues. Since moving to Wellington, New Zealand, he has produced large abstract paintings on canvas and consolidated his earlier video work, culminating in the Visual Music Project Stages 1, 2, 3. Michael's work offers profound insights into the artistic landscape of the Twentieth Century. --

The Partridge Kite
A powerful blast blows away a bank wall and five innocent people--and 4,250,000 in gold bars disappear. A coolly-plotted assassination seems accidental, as a militant left-wing labor leader, on the eve of a paralyzing national strike, takes a fatal fall down the world's longest escalator. Off the Yorkshire coast, an oil rig the size of a football field is firebombed and totally destroyed. The UK suffers blindly under a series of tragedies with no visible link. Then, a defector appears at Cannon Row police station and spells out the threat from the sinister group CORDON--a right-wing takeover of Great Britain is imminent. Only 12 days remain. The Prime Minister orders his intelligence chief t...
