Satisfaction in Times of Anger

Combining action with critique, this urban thriller engages with social controversies in 21st century Britain: racial prejudice, sexual grooming, populist politics and policing. Its conflicts take place on a human scale, without stereotyped heroes and villains. Everybody makes mistakes and nobody is innocent. Elli is greedy for the attention she gets from her boyfriend, Amir, but that's not how he sees their relationship at all. Ayesha is determined to establish her British Muslim identity but does not know the extent to which she will be tested. The Great Whites talk about pride in history and community, but their actions are crudely racist and conceal other, unspoken motives. DI Mason and DS Bent carry their own experiences of abuse and discrimination into this minefield of exploitation and manipulation. So much anger, so many people looking for their own satisfaction, creating ever more victims. And yet, following an escalating spiral of arson, kidnap and murder, an alliance between two very different young women provides a glimpse of a different path.
