The Line They Drew Through Us

From the author of Safiyyah's War – winner of the Indie Book Award, the Week Junior Book Award, the Jhalak Children's & YA Prize and The Diverse Book Award.

'Historical fiction at its finest - vibrant, vital, deeply moving, and brimming with wisdom for the future' - Sophie Anderson

'A richly told and immensely moving Partition story that spotlights a moment in history of colonial empire that changed the lives of millions' - A M Dassu

Three best friends are born on the same day under miraculous circumstances. But by their twelfth birthday, Jahan, Ravi and Lakshmi’s lives are about to change forever. The British announce Indian independence and draw lines of Partition that tear apart the country, and the friends. One of them flees, one of them disappears, and the other is left wondering, could a miracle bring them back together?
