When Alinas son, Fin, traces his long-absent birthfather, its the catalyst for decades of secrets to implode in Alinas neatly ordered life.

With the sudden appearance of another old flame, Rory, and the ever-present pull of a very different life in Bangladesh, shes left reeling.

Three relationships, all of them built on half-truths. All Alina can truly be sure of, is that you can choose your family, you just cant choose who they will turn out to be.
