The novel follows an unnamed narrator who leaves New York for The Hague to work as an interpreter at the International Criminal Court. She is a woman adrift—her father has passed away, her mother has moved to Singapore, and she is searching for a place to call "home".
Her work places her in the center of high-stakes political drama. She is tasked with interpreting for a former West African president accused of heinous war crimes.
