Ties, strings made up with screams (Apollinaire). At the striking of midnight into the new millenium, a new threat comes from the darkness. A baby was rescued but now a young boy is in danger. Three women are fighting. Nobody is safe. The year 1000 is no more. The year 2000 and Death. An engaging novel that blends thriller ,suspense and esothericism. A novel about strong connections between past and present New Year's Eve 1999. Guglielmo has an apparently quiet life, without any shadows. Gemma, his girlfriend, is the only girl he felt something well beyond physical attraction. Angelica, a loving and thoughtful mother. Filiberto, a detached and insensitive father. Finally Luana and Lucio, the two antagonists of the story, those who will try to destroy Guglielmo's life, to take him away from his loved ones in order to fulfil a wicked and crazy plan put it together by a sick and evil mind. However, life entails choices as well. Will Guglielmo manage to untie the strings that are trapping him and get his life back? The plot of this novel is articulated and dramatic; a novel that captures your attention so much that you will read it in one sitting because it is full of suspense that will keep your attention high.

Отрывок из книги
To the movements of the soul
that give meaning to everything.

Gemma was wearing a sage green twinset: her beautiful eyes were the same beautiful colour that morning; and they were persistently looking at Guglielmo, peering at every single detail, every gesture, trying to pierce through her appearance in search of some thought that had escaped from her control.
