Young teens Romola and Sebdon’t have their dads athome. Romola’s is a soldierin Afghanistan, and Seb’s isjust AWOL from his family,his place about to be filled bya new man.
Seb can’t handleit and wants to get his ownback. When Romola’s plans for a fresh startat school are scuppered by a mean girl, shegets a taste for revenge too. But where will itend?
The dual narrative works brilliantly andreaders will love Romola and Seb and theirgenuine, platonic relationship. A movingread for sophisticated ages 9 and up.
