Sandris is a young man in 1970s Latvia; Grace, a young woman in Britain. Both are about to hear unwelcome news about someone they held dear. Set far from each other in location and yet surprisingly close in their spirit, these two books are novels of friendship, love, but most of all of identity: of two young people searching for themselves, and the selves they project as they search - not knowing the tragedies that lie ahead.
