Set in two distinct time periods, "Ghost Girl, Banana" chronicles the lives of Sook-Yin, who is exiled from Kowloon to London in 1966, in what were the last years of the Chinese Windrush, and Lily (Sook-Yin's daughter) who in 1997's China can barely remember the mother that she lost when she was little.
In the late nineties timeline, Lily finds herself unexpectedly named the benefactor of a mysterious inheritance, one she ends up travelling across the world to claim. But in doing so, she begins to discover more about her identity and secrets that were buried decades earlier.
With a title that combines two typically stereotypical slurs against the two main characters, Wiz Wharton is certainly a new writer to watch.
Ghost Girl, Banana by Wiz Wharton is out on 18 May (£14.99)
