Three estranged siblings--and a high-maintenance cockatoo--reunite in a luminous novel about forgiveness, connection, and the complexities of family by the author of Sorry for the Inconvenience.
Upon the sudden deaths of their bird-obsessed parents, the three Shah siblings reunite.
Aliza has spent years holding their crumbling family together, caring for their younger brother, Sammy. And Aden, named executor of the estate, finds himself resentfully facing the one member of the family who always got their parents' undivided love: their famous Bollywood-bopping cockatoo, Coco.
One reckless night, Aden opens Coco's cage, letting her do what he did a decade ago--fly away from home.
In a panic, the siblings set off to recover her, armed with only Coco's tracking chip and the fragile hope they might set things right. What they think will be a quick search and rescue becomes a two-week cross-country road trip, where old grudges resurface, relationships are tested, and long-buried dreams stir awake.
As Coco, meanwhile, forges her own path to the past, Aden, Aliza, and Sammy follow--not just the bird, but the possibility of something more: a way back to each other.
