From the depths of one man's hunger for wealth and power emerged a bold scheme with global ramifications: relocating the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) line from London to New York City. Initially dismissed as absurd, the idea gained traction, driven by promises of immense riches and influence. London's centuries-long financial dominance faced a seismic shift to Manhattan's skyline, spurred not by necessity but by unyielding ambition. The mastermind behind this audacious plan cared little for tradition; his focus was on amassing wealth and winning at any cost. With strategic precision, he navigated legal and political obstacles, orchestrating the greatest financial coup in history. Amidst his calculations, however, lurked unfamiliar territory: matters of love and emotion, alongside the looming threat of danger to himself and his allies. Navigating treacherous politics and clandestine dealings, he understood that success hinged on his ability to navigate a complex landscape of power and influence.

Stephen Wilde is a fifth-generation Falkland Islander now living in Hampshire, England. From humble roots and a strong work ethic, he spent his formative years working on a farm. Wilde continued to toil in the agricultural sector for the first decade of his professional life. Later, he embarked on further education, navigating self-improvement through perseverance. Transitioning into the world of electronics, IT, and telecoms, Wilde adapted to the changing tides of industry. However, the tumultuous waves of the 2008 economic crash led Wilde to unemployment. This period of uncertainty lasted 11 long months. Until fate intervened, offering him the opportunity to traverse the globe and contribute to an exciting new material and product. In 2017, Wilde was at another crossroads when he seized the chance to shift gears and embrace a new role as the managing director of a manufacturing company. If you would like to read more about the author, this short book details Stephen's 'lucky' existence after five generations of disease, disasters, two world wars and the toss of a coin.
