Details
Also published as The Other Hand.
This is the story of two women.
Their lives collide one fateful day, and one of them has to make a terrible choice.
Two years later, they meet again - the story starts there...
Little Bee is a Nigerian refugee, and Sarah O'Rourke is a magazine editor from Surrey. After spending two years detained in a British immigration detention centre, Little Bee is illegally released and travels to the home of Sarah and her husband Andrew, whom she met two years previously on a beach in the Niger Delta.
Many descriptions of this book won't tell you more than this - so I won't either!
