Elisabeth Russell Taylor Boeken

Despite the predictions of the Mayans, and the best efforts of Alex and his fellow bankers in the City, the world failed to end in 2012 and instead managed to limp on into 2013.

A vibrant and unsentimental novel about the love and resilience of a family damaged by war.
