"Nine people of varying ages and backgrounds are trapped in an Indian consulate office after an earthquake in an unnamed American city. A sort of modern-day version of The Canterbury Tales, they take turns sharing stories of one amazing thing that happened in their lives. Delivered in beautiful prose and a nail-biting storyline is the provocative idea that people are not always who they seem to be."
