A story of three loves and a journey of self-discovery.
After years spent living in the Middle East, Sofia, an Italian freelance
journalist, moves back to England, determined to leave her past behind
and build a new life for herself and her daughter in Leeds.
On a night out on the town, she meets an enigmatic Iranian man whom she
is immediately drawn to, as he reminds her of her Omani ex-husband
At first, she seems to have many things in common with him: from a
difficult childhood and a rebellious personality, to a disdain for
social norms and a nostalgic love for the Middle East. The two enjoy a
whirlwind romance which will make her question herself and her
certainties.
As she relates her story to him, she will be forced to face her painful
past, and make sense of it to discover a new sense of self that will
change her outlook on life forever.
