Description
Â
Damian’s new friend wants him to be a hero. But what
does that really mean?
Damian’s family are living under witness protection now that his
dad, a once powerful gangster, has turned Queen’s evidence.
They’ve been moved to a cramped flat in a run-down council estate,
and they’ve all had to take on new names. Then Damian – sorry,
Finn – meets costumed superhero Star Kid, who wants Finn
to join his mission to keep the estate safe from criminals.
Soon Finn is forced to ask himself: who is he, really?
A funny, heartfelt novel about friendship and family – and where
the limits are for both.
Ben Davis’ new book, My Brilliant Plan to Fix Everything
is coming June 2023
