Samenvatting:

A powerful and immensely moving story of friendship, family and happiness, from an award-winning author well-known for his gritty realism for teens.

Maybe Gurnam wasn’t what he seemed. Maybe he was just putting on an
act. Was he lying to me and Mum?

Aman’s dad is gone, leaving her feeling lost and alone. She struggles to talk about it, but it’s a fact and he isn’t coming back. When a lovely man called Gurnam moves in to her street and saves Aman from some local bullies, he and Aman quickly become friends, perhaps even like family. But Gurnam has his own sadness. One that’s far bigger than Aman can understand, and it’s tearing his life apart.
