Paperback. Condition: Fair. "If The Boys from Brazil was written by Paul Auster, you'd have Human Solutions. Prepare for a one-sitting read." Robert Hough, author of The Final Confession of Mabel Stark and The StowawayTo most people, Javier Gonzalez is an ordinary man.

If you want your boss to like you, he can help; if you want the weatherman to fall in love with you, he can arrange it. He calls his business Human Solutions, and that?s exactly what he provides. Javier?s manipulations never fail because he controls every moment of every interactionhe is precise, observant, and emotionally ruthlessand this has served him well.But one day he slips.
