Join 12-year-old Anglo-Indian boy Hasan in 1943, after his family's life in Coventry is upturned during the Blitz and his parents send him to live with his grandpa in Calcutta. When he reaches India, Hasan is quickly introduced to a world of inequality, secrets and codebreaking. After befriending a strong-minded girl named Jaya, the pair soon decide to stand up for what they believe is right: fighting for freedom. An exciting and heartfelt WW2 adventure featuring an engaging, brave and determined preteen, from the brilliant author of the Rosie Raja series. Follow Hasan as he uncovers more about war, injustice and secret messages. Perfect for fans of Michael Morpurgo and Emma Carroll, and those looking for diverse historical fiction.
