Charlie Bell's picture is in the paper. He is a popular young man with a successful hedge fund & London is full of money. Then in one evening, everything changes. When his wife Leila threatens to leave him, a journey begins in which they are both forced to discover what they believe in. The plot sweeps the reader from glitzy pre-crisis London, through the Midsummer Night's Dream of rural Spain & then back again to the grittier London of The Hillford Estate & a charitable drop-in centre for kids.

In the climactic final scenes, set in the heat & sensual chaos of Notting Hill Carnival, each of the main characters will live out their answer. ...
