Jean-Cédric Michel
No horrible murders. No sick cops or killers. No endless clues and false leads. A much bigger world – that of big corporations, the super-rich, finance and States. Of their greed and lies – to maintain their privileges. Of their intersections and power games with civil society, progress and justice. The perfect setting for breathtaking and engaged adventures, lucid and optimistic. Idealistic too, where love and seduction leave a mark. An entertaining fiction – on issues that touch. On the permanent and uncertain struggle between democracy and capital.
"I love writing. The words, the narration, the plot. And the sheer pleasure: dialogs ..." Passionate about news and politics, Jean-Cédric Michel practices and observes this world since the end of the 1970s. Based in Geneva, passed through New York and California, a lawyer, skier and globetrotter, he is also a blogger known for his good-humored and sharp posts.
Gully Samoza
Who is Gully Samoza? 31 years old, hired by Tim Cook out of the blue. Grew up in the San Fernando Valley north of L.A. Electronics engineer at UCSC Santa Cruz - for refusing to let his parents, a biologist who emigrated from Venezuela and an American economics professor, pay for his education at Stanford. He travelled to his father's country at the age of 19, where he studied political science and planned economics at the height of the Chávez era. And a few years later he found himself secretly negotiating with a Communist Greek prime minister on behalf of big business, or with a European Commissioner to save the planet from big business.
An admirer of Che Guevara, grappling with his ideals and a few contradictions, after his Greek saga for Apple, after Silicon Valley where he still lives, it's Europe and a major capital that attracts him. Where, how far, and for how long?
