ABOUT THE BOOK
Liva and Johanne, two runaways, meet
randomly on a train one night. Liva is running away from home
because she can't stand her mother's new boyfriend who has just
moved in. Johanne is running because she's gotten herself into
trouble again, beaten someone to a pulp, and is now fleeing the
authorities.
In a big-city bar they meet Alexander,
a university student majoring in Molecular Biology; the son of a
wealthy landowner, he is struggling to stand on his own. Liva and
Johanne move in with Alexander in his student flat, and shortly
afterwards Johanne's best friend Michael joins them. He's a drug
dealer pushing coke, and he reckons that he might as well do
business in this town.
These are four completely different
kids, but fate ties them together for a fortnight, fourteen days
that will change their lives forever ...
