    Every Sunday morning, Sam gets exactly two hours with his daughter Shaina at a park bench. Two hours to smile. Two hours to pretend everything is fine. Two hours that keep him alive. The world never saw Sam coming. A brilliant tech genius passed over by every company that interviewed him, evicted from his home, abandoned by his wife, sleeping in shelters while fighting to survive. Sam is invisible to the world. But at night, the world's most powerful criminals, corrupt officials, and dangerous networks know someone is coming for them. They just don't know his name. From the broken bench of a lonely father to the encrypted depths of an underground hacker collective, this is the story of a quiet man who never gave up, not on justice, not on love, and not on the small girl in the yellow coat who still runs to him every Sunday. Some men build castles for their children. Sam built hope from nothing, and hope, it turns out, is the most dangerous thing in the world.

A heartbreaking story about family, sacrifice, and the dreams we carry for the people we love.

    Ever felt down? Empty? Lost? Sweetheart, that's completely normal. We've all been there, done that. There ain't a compass or a handbook to life. There is literally, no guide! We're all strays. But-tah, some of us stray onto right paths. Others to their detriment. Some of us, have things all planned out. And these plans actually work out! Contrarily, others encounter disaster: the more they plan, the more they fail. We all have coping mechanisms. We all have a go-to, a stress-free. Some of us rant. Some rave. Some rage on a punching bag. Some cry. Some sleep. I do much of the above. But I prefer to read. Read a good ole book. A novel, a comic, my Bible, poetry. Reading, calms the mind. Reading, heals the soul. Reading, nurtures the brain. It drowns pain: by immersing you into new worlds, other dimensions. Seriously, juste_lisez. And immerse yourself into the piece of literature. Breathe it, feel it, eat it. Become intimate with it! Stop whatever you're doing, right now, or is about to do. And... Juste_lisez, maintenant amour! Disclaimer: I never said it was a novel. Wattpad did! Follow me on Instagram @Juste_lisez :)
