Elliot's father was a war photographer acclaimed for always 'shooting the truth'. He was shot dead by an unknown killer in Paris three years before. Told by Elliot, the story interweaves two threads - Elliot's anger at his mother's efforts to sell his father's photographs, and his friendship with Jaspreet, who comes from a strict Sikh family.
