Inhaltsangabe

Truth, a gossamerthread sways over the sword of stolen history It's the 1980s, and countries are falling away from the Soviet Union like dominoes. Archie, an orphaned young Israeli man, shows promise under his mentor, a powerhouse international banker from Vienna. Soon after, Archie's financial acumen makes him a successful, wealthy consultant and philanthropist known throughout Europe. Yet all the money Archie gives away won't assuage his guilt for a broken promise. When a beautiful Palestinian lawyer introduces Archie to a rising dissident leader who seeks his help breaking the claws of Soviet dogma, will it bring danger to him and those he loves? In a novel that explores belief and spans continents, The Compass Point confronts the deception that divides a volatile world. Quote from Ch. 45 - "Reason?" Rothschild looked at Archie as if he had said the most preposterous thing. "There's no fire in reason: no bread and circuses. Think of Orwell's feelies. Entertain them, distract them, and light a fire under their feelings against those who disagree. That's how to create truth."
