This is a first draft, moreover English isn't my native tongue: despite all my best efforts to offer the most polished work I can produce, there could be grammar horrors, unhappy word choices and oddly contructed sentences. This is not an excuse, rather an invitation to point them out in a constructive way to help me further improve.
This is a work of fiction. Although not all names, businesses or places, historical events or incidents, could be fictitious—part of the story takes place in our near past— any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.
