Faiza has always wanted to fit in. With her banker husband, three beautiful children and gorgeous house in a sought-after corner of London, but behind the expensive clothes, make-up and furniture lies a big secret. Faiza has been dipping into the family savings account in her attempt to belong, promising herself that one day she'll put the money back.

Now Faiza has six weeks to put it all back before her husband or her friends notice she is penniless. And as the clock ticks down, a different Faiza emerges: one who will learn things about her family, her identity, her hopes and desires that she never knew before.

A warm-hearted and funny debut novel.
