POLITE SOCIETY
Ria Khan practises martial arts and plans to become a stunt woman – but when her sister drops out of art school to marry, Ria must use all her skills to pull off the ultimate wedding heist.
A London schoolgirl and tireless martial-artist-in-training, Ria Khan is determined to become a world-renowned stunt woman. She’s crushed when her biggest fan, sister Lena, drops out of art school, starts dating Salim, the charming, wealthy son of a prominent family, and suddenly announces they plan to marry and move to Singapore. How could Lena abandon her artistic dreams to become some trophy wife? But Ria soon realises that something isn’t right, leaving her no choice but to enlist herfriends in a daring mission to save Lena. Bursting with playful energy, set to a killer soundtrack and completely unique, this is a wild, ultra-charming tale of sisterly love.
