Is it too late? ¿In Part II of this literary fiction psychological suspense novel, the author captures what it was like to be an ex-pat in Prague in the late 1990s. The magical former Communist satellite is a playground for men with low self-esteem. Follow along as Joseph bridges his way from a broken past into a future flooded with love, dipped in reconnection and spiced with romance, charm and faith.
