Summary
In this companion novel to the acclaimed Boy, Everywhere, A.M. Dassu returns to extend the story of Sami's
best friend Ali, who organizes a charity soccer match for their friend Aadam while his whole life is privately
unraveling.
After their friend Mark's mum wins the lottery and gets a giant house with an indoor pool, Ali and Sami have been
having the time of their lives hanging at Mark's house. Even their friend Aadam gets a job there, which means
he can make more money for his legal battle for UK residency. But when some money goes missing, Aadam
is accused of stealing it--and all three boys are unceremoniously kicked out of Mark's house in suspicion.
On top of that, Ali's dad, who abandoned the family when Ali was little, is suddenly turning up everywhere in
town, and a half-brother Ali never knew has shown up at Ali's school. Ali feels miserable and resentful about it,
making it hard to be a good friend.
The boys know Aadam is innocent, and if he doesn't raise thousands of pounds right away, he could get
deported back to Syria amidst its civil war. At least Ali has a plan: they'll host a charity football penalty match
to raise money for Aadam so he can stay in the UK.
But can Ali pull together the match--even if he feels his whole life at home is falling apart?
