The trio vows to "get it right this time" but intention meets karma and loses – again. Laura's choice between the men she loves, compromised by her desire to hold on to both, brings this story to its stunning conclusion.

Good morning everyone!Hope you are well! Today I want to talk to you about Brownie! Fantastic creatures that populate the traditional Scottish stories, a bit grumpy, who do not like contact with humans despite being willing to help them with the boring chores every night in exchange for a cup of milk and porridge! Scotland is also the land that hosted me first for six months to study Scottish literature, and later saved me from the "Grey Men - and Women - who populate the Beautiful Country in which I had the (s)fortune to be born! People who follow only the law "Homo Homini Lupus, without even knowing in depth some elementary rules of their native language! Luckily I live in Scotland and my girls were born and will grow up in a more civilized country, where the DIGNITY of each human being is widely protected!
