Synopsis
 

Harry is your typical small businessman, works seven days a week, and maintains a one-room office with just a secretary. He has a nice family and a wife, with three kids. The last few years have been exciting, and his destiny seemed secure—until the phone call that changes his life.

When Harry receives a threatening call from a competitor, the next day, Sunday, his banker phones him. From that point on, life would never be the same again for him, or his family. The excitement and emotional upheaval of a torrid love affair, and the sorrows and tragedies that would follow is beyond imagination. There is only one hope—Nonno. Harry’s grandfather knew about the energy tunnel and Harry himself has seen it. This energy beam could be the stepping stone to immortality, as well as the salvation for the human race. Will it work in Harry’s favor?

Filled with unpredictable twists, From All Sides is a compelling story about people, events, and circumstance, and how their lives are drastically affected by situations that happen every day. The author elucidates how these conditions make people change and resort to abnormal behaviors. Interwoven with mystery, rivalry, violence, science fiction and a torrid affair, this gripping novel will keep readers turning the pages until the very end.
