Beskrivning

This book tells the incredible true story of Ranulfo Juárez, a Mexican immigrant. Readers won’t know until the end whether Ranulfo became another innocent victim of the Financial Crisis of 2008, but, throughout, they will see Ranulfo and Peter confront naysayers and cheats, as well as their own differences and fears.
