‘This is nice, innit? Yeah. Good little set-up to tell you the story of my name. The story of my true name.’

When a woman receives an unexpected letter from the British Passport Office, she is forced to confront an old mystery: why does her South African passport not carry her first name? Armed with the wisdom of favourite ‘90s TV shows, she sets out on a journey that will take her back to the turmoil of Mobutu’s Congo, growing up in past-Apartheid South Africa, moving to Ireland, and finding love in a hostile England.

As her journey becomes inextricably linked with the tides of global history, how far will she go to unravel the truth?
