Publisher's Synopsis
Stephen and Ashraf are 16-year-old classmates and each fancies the other's sister. A bond forms between them but is destroyed when Stephen gets involved in an extreme right-wing organisation and Ashraf is drawn into an extremist Muslim group. They become enemies and are injured when their rival groups clash. Over weeks in hospital in adjoining beds, they're visited by their sisters. The girls' friendship and the boys' fondness for the other's sister, begin to break down the barrier of intolerance and the boys become friends again.
