I adored this wonderful book and have already red it twice. I think Jamila Gavin has really captured the characters and has written an amazing story. It is a bout a girl named Marvinder and a boy, Jaspal they live in India and then a war breaks out, the children set off on a mission to find their father who left years ago to study in England but things got complicated. I won`t ruin the end but I would REALLY recommend this book and am looking forward to reading the next two books, eye of the horse and track of the wind. When I picked this book off the shelf at my Grandma`s house I had nothing to read so I started flicking the pages. I got told off rather a few times for reading at night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
