'Sahota knows how to light up a scene, how to make you stay up late at night. A brilliant and beautiful novel' Guardian
Tochi, Avtar and Randeep have fled India for a new home in England, where, bound by secrets, haunted by history, and in pursuit of hope, they try to find a toehold in a country that seems utterly foreign. Tochi and Avtar have no real papers, but Randeep is the lucky one, married to Narinder, his visa-wife living on the other side of town. She has her own reasons for trying to help him. But what price have they paid for their dreams?
