From this fact the author gives us to pasture the lives of all the protagonists of the scene. Their search for happiness power, their aspiration desperate to fill voids and injuries, and frankly lost their lives and their souls there is a moment, a small moment is chosen. We choose to grow where it chooses to lose.
Unable to let go of the book once it has begun! of course it is far from our daily since this book makes us navigate the Russian financial powers, US and UK but the theme remains "valid" and is master hand Treaty !!!
