Alexander is a successful engineer who is building a bridge that is plagued with troubles: mostly cost-cutting. He also has a drop dead gorgeous wife, and wouldnt you know that on a trip to London he runs into a former squeeze who is now a well known actress. Trouble on both fronts: home and work. So now the story concerns how these are resolved. As always, this is a straight forward story: well-written, easy to read, and enjoyable.
