Maya grows up in Germany in the shadow of her beautiful, volatile mother- a whirlwind, spinning stories of the family's former glory.
Then Kojo arrives. Kojo has a way of talking about Ghana, and empire, and history - and for the first time, Maya understands that her parents are exiles. But fate intervenes, and the cousins are separated.
