About the Book: In the insular world of Sri Lanka’s elite, Neja and Ramesh’s carefully constructed life is shattered when their child, Devin, is taken. To protect their family’s reputation and avoid their enemies, they must navigate a web of secrets, including Neja’s difficult relationship with her mother-in-law and Ramesh’s past with ruthless creditors from a Ponzi scheme. The list of suspects is long and includes a close swimming coach, a mysterious doctor who helped them have a child, and an enigmatic woman from the British High Commission. As they search for the truth, one name from their past—Satya Basu—resurfaces, and they wonder if she is back for revenge.
