Description
Four strangers' lives intersect in unexpected ways, their paths crossing like the gulf between those who have too much and those who will never have enough. Beatrice Kizza flees her homeland, finding solace in London's night-time world of shift-work and bedsits. Howard Pink, a self-made millionaire, struggles with self-doubt despite his success. Carol Hetherington navigates the quiet life after loss, while Esme Reade seeks meaning as a young journalist. Their lives are forever changed when an act shatters the glass that separates their worlds, revealing connections they could never have imagined. This audacious and compassionate novel explores the human experience, shedding light on the complexities of love, loss, and identity.
