This first novel by the award-winning actress, playwright and poet Ameera Patel is a contemporary Joburg tale of secrets, lies and ultimately love.
Disparate characters collide: Flora, a domestic worker, Zindile, her drug dealer son, and Farhana, the Indian girl he is dating in secret, Runyararo, a mute Zimbabwean house painter, Frank, a widower, and his drug-addict daughter Cathleen. All will leave their mark on your memory as well as your heart.
