The heroes of this novel are unconventional characters, but we encounter them every day. They live in the space between truth and fiction. They remained silent until the author loosened the knot on their tongue to tell what had exhausted them by concealing it over many years, what pained them and what made them happy, their dreams that did not need explanation and their ambitions that did not cost much. . In his new novel, Ashraf El-Ashmawy raises important questions about the value of truth and the power of falsehood's influence on marginalized citizens trying to live, through an interesting narration of beginnings full of hopes and confused endings, which led most of them to cross the bridge of ambition to crime for a humanitarian motive under duress. After each of them thought that he was a member of a secret society that the others did not know about, he discovered that he was just a number in a long line waiting for his turn to receive his share, but at the same time he paid others regularly throughout the years and days of his life without knowing it.
