It is 1947, and India is about to be partitioned, creating the new country Pakistan. Bilal is determined to protect his dying father from news of the Partition, so that his father can die in peace. With the help of friends, Bilal persuades others to collude with him, even printing false pages of the local newspaper to hide the ravages of unrest from his father. First person recount. Suggested level: secondary.

Irfan Master is project manager of Reading the Game at the National Literacy Trust. His family is from Gujarat, India, where his debut novel is set. He lives in England.
