Three estranged siblings—and a high-maintenance cockatoo—reunite in a luminous novel about forgiveness, connection, and the complexities of family by the author of Sorry for the Inconvenience.

Upon the sudden deaths of their bird-obsessed parents, the three Shah siblings reunite.

Aliza has spent years holding their crumbling family together, caring for their younger brother, Sammy. And Aden, named executor of the estate, finds himself resentfully facing the one member of the family who always got their parents’ undivided love: their famous Bollywood-bopping cockatoo, Coco.

One reckless night, Aden opens Coco’s cage, letting her do what he did a decade ago—fly away from home.

In a panic, the siblings set off to recover her, armed with only Coco’s tracking chip and the fragile hope they might set things right. What they think will be a quick search and rescue becomes a two-week cross-country road trip, where old grudges resurface, relationships are tested, and long-buried dreams stir awake.

As Coco, meanwhile, forges her own path to the past, Aden, Aliza, and Sammy follow—not just the bird, but the possibility of something more: a way back to each other.

Editorial Review

Birds of a feather...
I love the premise of this story: three grieving siblings embarking on a cross-country adventure to find their dead parents' escaped award-winning cockatoo, Coco. What starts as a bird hunt becomes an exploration of family dynamics, as road-trip mishaps force the siblings to confront years of guilt, blame, and love. Author Farah Naz Rishi skillfully weaves adventure with internal healing. Narrator Kelsey Jaffer’s performance brings these complex sibling relationships to life, along with a few chapters told from Coco’s perspective. This is family drama at its finest, wrapped in an unexpectedly engaging quest that left me invested in both the bird and the bonds. —Tricia F., Audible Editor

Great storyline that I wanted to see an ending for, however, this writer suffers from overwriting and purple prose. The writer writes with overabundance of adjectives and descriptions about every single thing that happens. Sometimes we just want to read a story and not have to hear a description about every….single…. thought, object or scenery. Every other line of writing includes a description and it just became really annoying.

I love a story with layers. Complex human relationships are so beautiful. This is a book I never even knew I would love.

A really touching story

Whatever Farah writes, I will be reading it. This book has such wonderfully humanizing voice… exactly the balm my heart was yearning for.

A humanizing read for dehumanizing times
