Summary

For Damir, time is money. He bikes around the city collecting food orders, rushing through the cycle lanes next to Uber drivers and grocery vans - and all the other people delivering your every desire. He arrives with your sushi rolls and fries and disappears into the night - Ping! Onto the next drop. He is invisible; one player in the boardgame of the city. But one summer's evening, a chance encounter changes all the rules. Damir arrives on Decca's doorstep with a bag of spilled edamame beans, in a postcode that could be another universe, and there's an immediate connection. The man on the bike crosses the divide - suddenly fully seen. And a throwaway takeaway order sets in motion a chain of events that will change all their lives, forever.
