520	8	0	_aFour strangers meet on a turbulent flight from Dubai to London: Amira, a canny Moroccan prostitute; Lamis, a thirty-year-old Iraqi divorcee; Nicholas, an English expert on Islamic art; and Samir, a Lebanese man who is delivering a monkey on a mission he doesn't fully understand. Once safely on British soil, Lamis and Nicholas fall in love, Samir chases after blond British youths, and Amira reinvents herself as a princess, the better to lure clients at the best London hotels. Only in London follows the lives of these four through the city and across cultural borders.
