Special Note to my dear readers:Making absolute difference to pave the way for a brighter future, has always been the vision of author Christopher A Thompson...From the secluded village of mountainous Saint Ann-a place where cultivation, physical labour, farm-animal, straightforwardness, love, peace, tranquility, harmony and reciprocated living once existed,to a lone and long tormented journey, that would later landed him in Kingston-in one of the most fortified-but notoriously dangerous ghetto in Kingston’s slum... A community where violence seem prone and crooks lurks, where friend turn deadly and murderous speech heard, where police brutality lingers and case turn cold- while plundering, killing, political disturbances and social issues, would serves as an extreme compulsion.... Throughout his life, he encountered countless trials, heart-wrenching discourses of crushing chronicle in his native Jamaica-one that tested his soul, his fate, and the limits of his courageous endurance...After much learning, Thompson realized that perseverance, wisdom, hard work and moral values are key elements needed and one that should be established among people...An insightful look at his incredible journey and his eventful life and life´s philosophy, begins with the release of his first book-
"TELL IT AS IT IS IN THE HEART OF THE MASTERMIND..."
In Tell It As It Is, the author unleashed to readers the sleazy and miserable history once existed behind his Jamaican heritage... As a youngster, he left his rural hometown and farther himself to Kingston to begin his quest for a brighter future, things got exceedingly difficult for him fast-when he stayed in the mean but trifling side of town (Kingston’s Slum) where many negative aspect of life existed...Unwilling to give up himself, he overcame the trials that followed and soon earned for himself a better living, and subsequently a better education some time later...
This incredible but insightful story of a young man and his rocky journey towards a grand dream-remained his enormous strength of courage, endurance, perseverance, and one man’s courageous odyssey, one that took him from the mean streets of Kingston, to new challenges in the Bronx, and ultimately, a new family, a home, and one of the things he needed most-a peace of mind..
In tell it as it is Christopher eloquently pens a heartfelt memoir that also served as a candid, insightful chronicle about his beautiful but troubled motherland, through the eyes of many a young soul who was once a part of this heroic story-now stands firmly as a pensive observer from afar...
However, with my prophecy, I make bold to say that the contents in this volume will capture in its category-one of the most lucrative script of all times, and will stands evident to the most troubled, but bone-chilling truth...I´ve said this since this book is considered to be-exceedingly unique, informative, historically, politically, biographically and chronologically oriented, and is somewhat provocative.... These striking findings will allow this book to excel beyond its contenders-as to those in its immediate similarity... He concluded saying quote, "I´ve had< one of the most horrendous olden times, but as I apply pen to paper, my future will not be defined by my past, will not be plagued by my ancient circumstances..." While continuing he however vow to Tell It As It Is as this book entitles-In The Heart Of The Mastermind.../p>

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.

El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes.
