My name's Tevita Martin and I'm fourteen. But I'll be fifteen in less than two months. My parents call me Tev, usually, and Tevita when they're annoyed with me. There's been a lot of 'Tevita' lately. That's the reason I'm being packed off to my mum's family in Tonga, to 'sort me out, get rid of a few demons' as Dad put it. But Tev gets more than his parents bargained for. First there's the big culture shock of life in Tonga, then a cyclone, a death in the family, a grand passion . . . and a whole lot more. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
