'Heartfelt and timely' CHRIS CLEAVE, New York Times bestselling author
of Everyone Brave is Forgiven -- When family tragedy strikes, Alice
Fonseka, the dreamy, artistic child of a Singhalese mother and Tamil
father, leaves the beautiful island of Sri Lanka. Unable to bear the
injustice of what has happened, her family heads for England. There, in
a totally foreign environment, Alice builds a life for herself and finds
outlets for her art. But she remains restless, haunted by memories of
the past, and, even in London, the threat of violence is never far away.
