On joining the Government Service in the early eighties, he found himself criss-crossing the continents of the world for almost twelve years undertaking forensic and anti-dumping investigations. During these travels, he concluded that there are many possible stories about the fascinating world of international trade. Millions of people criss-cross the airports of the world each moment of every day and night, and each and every one of these persons have their own singular objective or story ... whatever that may be.
Theuns retired (officially!) in 2005 and started a consultancy on international trade and customs issues, again traversing the world, now looking from outside to the inside ... metaphorically speaking. This is his third novel, in addition to countless actuality reports on trading situations that he prepared over the years!view less
