Peta Jones is an ordinary girl struggling with the loss of her
father, an army hero who died in mysterious circumstances. When she
receives clues that he may still be alive, but noone believes her,
she embarks on a dangerous rescue across the crystal-clear waters
of the Mediterranean to a clifftop castle, home to a billionaire in
exile. Soon Peta discovers that what some people will do for money,
she will do for truth and hope.

-webkit-text-stroke: #000000} span.s1 {font-kerning: none} In the
gossip-fuelled world of Victorian London, Persephone Lavelle is the
name on everyone's lips. As Mary's secret identity is exposed and
rumours fly, she flees the scandal by escaping to Venice. Lost
among the twisting alleyways and shadowy canals she encounters a
mysterious, masked young man. He offers her the world, but at what
price?
A colourful and insightful introduction to the lives of the world's
most renowned and inspirational artists. This informative book
invites young readers to discover the creative practices of female
artists who, over their careers, broke boundaries and exceeded
expectations. Each page reveals their struggles and successes,
demystifying the art world, building confidence and inspiring a new
generation. With foreword by Tate's first female director, Maria
Balshaw, and biographical entries on over thirty artists, this book
contains unique interviews with living artists including Rachel
Whiteread, Yayoi Kusama and Paula Rego.
When Mary Adams sees Millais' depiction of the tragic Ophelia, a
whole new world opens up for her. Determined to find out more about
the beautiful girl in the painting, she hears the story of Lizzie
Siddal - a girl from a modest background, not unlike her own, who
has found fame and fortune against the odds. Mary sets out to
become a Pre-Raphaelite muse, too, and reinvents herself as
Persephone Lavelle. But as she fights her way to become the new
face of London's glittering art scene, 'Persephone' ends up
mingling with some of the city's more nefarious types and is forced
to make some impossible choices. Will Persephone be forced to
betray those she loves, and even the person she once was, if she is
to achieve her dreams?
