Music has a power to change our moods and emotions. We all know this, yet sometimes we do not take the time to listen to music. I am also guilty of this. However, when Christmas comes, I never fail to listen. A time of year for happiness, celebration and good wishes from everybody. The soundtrack of Christmas is wonderful. Now I am adding my own small part to this soundtrack, hoping that people can listen and relax, enjoy and feel the spirit of Christmas like I do every year from Christmas music. The 11 tracks I have chosen are just a few of my favourites. Popular music we all know and some less popular but equally brilliant music I have discovered on my travels. My ambition was to create an album filled with beauty, celebration and happiness, as well as giving time to think about the deeper meanings of Christmas.

Le sue indagini si snodano tra Londra e New York portando alla luce strani giri di prostituzione d'alto bordo, giochi d'azzardo e traffici di droga. Le storie di Maggie e Saz scorrono parallele in un crescendo di suspense, destinate a convergere nel drammatico epilogo.
