An unconventional love story from the highly-acclaimed author of MELTING and THE DINNER Kathryn Cheet is not looking for love when she meets Craig Summer. Far from it. Kathryn is the female cab-driving equivalent of a sailor with a girl in every port. For some time, she has been leading five separate lives; conducting five simultaneous relationships with five people who do not know of each other's existence. Driving her black cab around London at night, Kathryn Cheet can handle anything - or so she thinks. Until now, she has successfully compartmentalised her life, weaving a different set of lies and half-truths about herself for each of her lovers. But a chance encounter with an obstreperous passenger is about to change all that. Craig Summer has arrived to wreak havoc in the intricate order of Kathryn's life, and will ultimately force her to confront the demons of her past. Kathryn Cheet has met her match.
