Résumé
Orphaned Abdul from war-torn Baghdad, Rosalia, a Rom girl who has escaped the white slave trade, Cheslav, gone AWOL from a Russian military school, and Jonah, their boat pilot's ten-year-old nephew, are stalled in the Channel, trying to get to… England after the pilot has died. The four of them end up hijacking a yacht and, despite their fear and mistrust, form a kind of makeshift family. And as the authorities close in on them, they find refuge in an unusual place - a child's secret cave on the English coast. For senior high readers. Some descriptions of violence. 2010.
