Their love is against the laws of a merciless state-but the heart
has its own power. For rollercoaster designer Theo, living on the
edge is just part of the job. He's used to wandering the world
perfecting thrills, his heart immune to commitment. But then a
commission in repressive North Korea exposes him to emotions he's
never dared to feel. Tour guide Min has a soul that wants to soar,
but she knows it's safer to build walls around her heart and mind.
Skilled in showcasing the mesmerising beauty of capital city
Pyongyang without revealing its darker secrets, she introduces Theo
to a country he will never forget-and begins to question her policy
of quiet compliance. But forgetting-or pretending to-is the key to
survival for Min's formidable grandmother Cuckoo. After a
devastating heartbreak years ago, she learned that passion and
oppression just don't mix. As Min and Theo grow closer and
long-held secrets come to light, all three are forced to confront
emotions they've tried to suppress. In a country where following
their hearts will put them in danger, how much are they willing to
risk?
