This story begins with a boy, the child of Czech immigrants to the US, who is brought up on the ancient myths, and on the folktales of his parents’ homeland. As he grows older, he becomes aware that the one thing he hasn’t been told is what his parents did – and who his mother loved – during the war.

This book concerns itself with how, through creative marketing, these viruses can be started in order to greatly benefit the products they relate to, without the marketing budgets of Nike or Coca-Cola.
