On a holiday to the then Yugoslavia, Alison met and fell in love with a man. They moved back to the UK together where they married and had two children. However, after turmoil in his home country, her husband became radicalized by his Muslim faith, and the couple divorced. Alison was granted custody of the children, but her ex-husband fled with them. Now Alison must track them down on a journey which takes her not just to what is now Bosnia, but also to the tumultuous patriarchy of Iran, where the father's rights trump all else.
