520    The Rise & Fall of Great Powers begins in a dusty 
       bookshop. What follows is an abduction, heated political 
       debate, glimpses into strangers’ homes, and travel around 
       the globe. It’s a novel of curious personalities, mystery,
       and lots of books: volumes that the characters collect, 
       covet, steal.  Tooly Zylberberg, owner of a bookshop in 
       the Welsh countryside, spends most of her life reading. 
       Yet there’s one tale that never made sense: her own life. 
       In childhood, she was spirited away from home, then raised
       around Asia, Europe and the United States. But who were 
       the people who brought her up? And what ever happened to 
       them?  There was Humphrey, a curmudgeon from Russia; there
       was the charming but tempestuous Sarah, who hailed from 
       Kenya; and there was Venn, the charismatic leader who 
       transformed Tooly forever. Until, quite suddenly, he 
       vanished.  Years later, she has lost hope of ever knowing 
       what took place. Then, the old mysteries stir again, 
       sending her – and the reader – on a hunt through place and
       time, from Wales to Bangkok to New York to Italy, from the
       1980’s to the Year 2000 to the present, from the end of 
       the Cold War, to the rise and wobbles of U.S. power, to 
       the digital revolution of today.  Gradually, all secrets 
       are revealed…
