A Marvellous Year for Plums

Work:: A Marvellous Year for Plums (S433847653)

Hugh Whitemore's sophisticated political thriller examines a flashpoint in British history that still resonates today - the Suez Crisis in 1956. As his health collapses, Prime Minister Anthony Eden faces the prospect of leading his country into war. Meanwhile his friends, colleagues and opponents deal with political and emotional crises of their own.
