Por si fuera poco, tendra que mediar en los asuntos sentimentales de sus amigos y encauzar a sus indomitos hijos, cuyos modernos estilos de vida no termina de comprender. Ademas, parece que una crisis diplomatica esta a punto de estallar, dejando claro que la vida en una embajada es todo excepto aburrida.""Product Details
