\"When ten-year-old Abbas arrives in England to start a new life-- having just fled conscription into the Iranian army and survived almost three months alone in Istanbul, Turkey, waiting for a visa--he does not know that his troubles have only just begun. Abbas's cousin packs him off to boarding school, and infrequent phone calls are his only contact with his beloved mother in Iran. Things get worse when Abbas is threatened with deportation and forced to work through the nights during his school holidays to repay his 'debt', and worse still when, at the age of thirteen, he finds himself homeless\"--Page 4 of cover.
