A powerful, heart-wrenching story of friendship and love
‘This is a story about me, Clementine, and my friends: a panther called Levi, a pelican called Lola and a turtle called Jimmy. It is about dragons and goblins, my Daddy the King, my Mummy the Queen and Prince Pio my brother. At least that is the way I tell it sometimes when thoughts of the blood, the machetes, the swamp and the fear of Uncle Leonard become too hard to describe.

Ashley Bolt – A middle-aged, loner for whom teaching singing is the only escape from his London life
Clementine Habimana – A Rwandan child refugee who witnesses the 1994 genocide at first-hand
When their two worlds collide, nothing is ever the same again...
