SYNOPSIS:

Description:

In the wake of civil unrest and upheaval in 1997 in Albania, a young couple finds their dreams shattered, compelled to flee their homeland in search of sanctuary.

Arriving in Greece, they confront the harsh realities of unemployment, language barriers, and cultural differences, along with the sting of prejudices, preferences and differentiations.

Undeterred by these challenges, Lir endeavors to navigate the unfamiliar terrain with wit and humor, shedding light on the complexities of human interaction in this new environment.

However, the struggle for survival soon leads Lir into the murky world of illegal activity, where he becomes entangled with mobsters, hackers, and thieves involved in a credit card fraud business group.

Despite his best efforts to maintain a semblance of normalcy for himself and his wife, Anna, he finds himself drawn deeper into a web of deceit and danger.

As tensions escalate, Lir must tread carefully, forging alliances and cultivating connections to protect himself and those he holds dear.

Nevertheless, he understands that he must let go before it's too late, thus creating the perfect moment to be both daring and consequence-free.

The boss of the group is a diabolical, ruthless individual who makes it impossible for Lir to leave. Between him and Lir, a clash of minds, cunning actions, and secret maneuvers ensues, determining who will emerge victorious over the other.

In all mafia experiences, you walk into the 'Dance' for free and give a million, and you can't get out, Lir must carefully execute every move and slowly build the Spider's protective web, establishing connections with other characters in work and side businesses, until the moment comes to intervene.

Yet, amidst the chaos, he chooses to remain steadfast in his compassion and integrity, refusing to compromise his values for personal gain.

On this endless journey, Lir never forgets to be a simple, romantic, loving individual, helping even those who have helped him. This shows that he doesn't sell his soul and identity for money.

But will his resolve be enough to withstand the relentless onslaught of fate? As the stakes rise and loyalties are tested, Lir grapples with the uncertainty of his future, uncertain if he can emerge unscathed from the tumultuous dance of destiny.

In this gripping tale of resilience and redemption, Lir's journey serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of the human spirit, even in the face of adversity, to understand where he has been, what turmoil he endured, and the balance he sought in anticipation of what life holds ahead.

But will he come out unscathed, or will he be swept away by the twists of his fate!? If only the character himself knew, he wouldn't have even stepped into this game, and this novel wouldn't have been written at all.
