She had the perfect husband, the perfect career --- the perfect life...UNTIL BRAZIL. A woman MBA in a stalled career, a troubled Brazilian company, and a fledgling consulting team far from Boston headquarters inhabit this compelling tale of cultural contrasts, business intrigue, and personal transformation. Those who join protagonist Beth Bartlett as she yoyos between Boston and Brazil will share the inner conflicts that challenge hidden assumptions and cause her to question the meaning of the good life. A fast-paced plot carries readers from roadside slums to smoke-filled boardrooms, from Boston Ballet to bossa nova, from Rolex-clad haves to barefoot have-nots. Along the way, Ivy League consultants, demanding shareholders, baffling Brazilians, and a street-smart Argentine reveal an insider s view of international business and strategy formulation. Then, amidst this journey of self-discovery, a surprising love story unfolds. As her two worlds collide, Beth s strategic choices reshape her client and her career, her love and her life. Beth s transformation and its costs echo the personal drama faced when one ventures far from home in search of opportunity or growth, making this story as timely and relevant as it is entertaining.

One of the greatest treasures in the World and one of the hotspots in Brazil: the Pantanal. It has a privileged geographical position on the map, right in the heart of South America, in the middle of the tropical rainforest, surrounded by Caatinga and Cerrado. Almost all the Brazilian fauna is present. The Pantanal is the largest wetland in the world. With an area of about 250,000 square kilometers (roughly the area of Holland, Belgium, Switzerland and Portugal together) the Pantanal extends through Bolivia, Paraguay and Brazil with around 62% in Brazil, in the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. Inserted in the central part of the basin in the north of Paraguay, the Pantanal is surrounded and flooded regularly by the Paraguay river and its many tributaries in the region and impresses with extensive wetlands and wild nature - since 2000 World Heritage by Unesco and protected nature “World Biosphere Reserve”.

It is late afternoon in my Brazilian garden. The dazzling blue of sea and sky which characterises a tropical noonday has become subdued and already roseate tints are beginning to prepare the glory of the sunset hour. A lizard crawls lazily up the whitewashed wall. The song of the _sabiá_, that wonderful Brazilian thrush, sounds from the royal palm tree. The air is heavy with the perfume of the orange blossom. There is no long twilight in the tropics. Night will leap down suddenly upon my Brazilian garden from out of the glory of the sunset sky. [more]
