Evening Standard's Wander List Guide to 2019 Getaways
Guardian's Best Summer Books, 2018
"A beautiful, brilliant modern classic." Sabrina Mahfouz , Guardian
Neha has just been diagnosed with the same terminal cancer that killed her mother. Was this her destiny? She codes a computer program to find out, one that intricately maps out her entire life and the lives of those closest to her: her dad, who left Kenya for windblown northern England; her brother, a struggling comedian whose star is finally beginning to rise; her grandmother, who lost the man she loved to racist violence. By understanding the past, Neha hopes to come to terms with her present - and reckon with her family's and her country's future.
