A major company in the computer industry, based in Italy, finds itself in an untenable position as a new system project it sold to a very substantial client, founders due to an over-zealous salesman and hardware that is far from ready as a major financial crisis hits the world following the Lehman Brothers crash. Countback examines the events both within the company and the effects of those events on its staff and sub-contractors battling both the technical problems they encountered as well as, in some cases, their own personal demons. Written largely in reverse order and narrated by one of the company's own project leaders, it centres on how, just occasionally, one person in a team can make all the difference between crisis and catharsis. Countback is not just a story-it's an odyssey through corporate upheaval and personal redemption. This literary voyage transcends conventions, offering a compelling narrative that explores the intersections of ambition, adversity, and the unwavering human spirit.
