As a young woman, frail, brave Bari escapes North Korea, eventually landing in London where she finds work as a masseuse. Paid to soothe her clients' aching bodies, she discovers that she can ease their more subtle agonies as well, having inherited her beloved grandmother's uncanny ability to read the pain and fear of others.
