A Guardian Best Book of 2019. Shortlisted for the Saltire Fiction Book of the Year 2019. Longlisted for the Highland Book Prize 2019. Salma, Moni and Iman - friends and active members of their local Muslim Women's group - want more out of their lives. Salma is successful and happily married, but tempted to risk it all when she's contacted by her first love. Moni gave up a career in banking to care for her disabled son.
Iman, in her twenties and already on her third marriage, longs for freedom and autonomy. When all three decide to take a road trip together to the Scottish Highlands, they embark on a journey of self-discovery while grappling with the conflicting demands of family, duty, and faith.
