The stories are unique and dark, filled with wonder and emotion.

It all started with a midnight email. I was drunk, overtired, and pretty certain I was about to lose my TA position with my professor. So, what did I do? Sent an angry message on the campus email system, of course, berating him for being a sexist, chauvinist pig - except, I selected the wrong name on the department list. Suddenly, I’ve been reassigned, and my new advisor is none other than Professor Reed Baron himself. The accidental recipient of my fiery email.

It’s funny how one little pill can change your entire life. Or, more accurately, the forgetting of one tiny pill. Just when everything was going right, fate threw a major "f--k you" my way in the form of a bun in the oven. So, what did I do? Ran. Ran from the two men I adored, because they didn’t want kids. There was no place for them in their world. They’d told me that a dozen times. I had no intention of ever coming back, but desperation makes a woman do crazy things.

Nelle "Avventure di Tom Sawyer" (apparso nel 1876) l'autore dà voce ai sentimenti, alle storie e alle superstizioni che la sua generazione ancora condivideva nel periodo appena antecedente la Guerra di secessione, dove l'insicurezza e i problemi razziali dipingevano lo scenario emotivo della società americana del Sud.

L'investigatore privato Bacci Pagano non sa dire di no alla richiesta di Mara, una delle donne della sua vita: dovrà tenere a bada le inquietudini del dottor Nicolò Ingroia, detto il Gigante, lo psicoanalista che vive sulle alture che sovrastano Genova Nervi. In realtà avrebbe più di un motivo per rifiutare l'incarico: non è il suo mestiere occuparsi di un alcolizzato che ha tentato il suicidio; e poi il Gigante l'aveva già incontrato vent'anni prima, quando indagava sulla morte di un suo giovane paziente misteriosamente ucciso in Thailandia.

La guerra ha lasciato la piccola città sulla collina, il frastuono è passato e anche se le notizie dal fronte ormai lontano ne portano ancora l'eco, l'insopprimibile soffio della vita riemerge dalla terra, torna a percorrere con le sue antiche superstizioni e leggende i borghi, le chiese, le grandi stanze in penombra delle vecchie ville. Nascono nuovi amori, tornano rancori mai dimenticati.

Ventuno sono le edizioni della Coppa del Mondo. Quarantaquattro i passi di Maradona prima di segnare il leggendario gol contro l'Inghilterra. Tre i minuti che separano quel gol dalla piroetta diabolica della "Mano de Dios". Ancora tre sono i minuti - i più belli della storia - in cui il Brasile di Garrincha e Pelé segna e colpisce due pali contro l'Unione Sovietica. Duemilatrecentosettantanove sono le reti segnate dal 1930 al 2014. Zero le foto che immortalano la prima, segnata da Lucien Laurent il 13 luglio del 1930.
