The violent death of her biologist husband forces Nafisa into a world of illegal organ transplants, bribery, and scientific and political controversy. With an acute sense of the disruptions of contemporary South Africa, and its keen feeling for love and loss, the novel explores Nafisa's relationships with the people close to her and the anarchic currents of life and death.
