A priceless painting by famous English artist
J.M.W. Turner has been rediscovered, and its
owners must be traced before it can be sold.

But who owns the painting?

The answer to that question involves a search
spanning seventy years and three continents:
from Stalinist Russia to Hollywood in the
silent movie era, revolutionary Bolivia,
Australia, New Guinea. Linking the destinies of
the Gulliver family is the skullduggery of the
contemporary art market.

Sweeping in its emotional, social and historical
range, set against the panorama of
twentieth-century history, The Gulliver Fortune
is a gripping, absorbing novel.
