Tasha is the smallest girl in class, who finds out all about Bas, with her fair honesty. A crazy crash or two brings them together, very close indeed, and they want to help a circus performer who is in trouble after setting a lion free – by accident or deliberately? It’s killed in the street, and the media love this, but Bas knows more about it.
In order to cope with mental suspense, Bas and Tasha need to be sharp detectives, careful adventurers, and very best friends. When secrets are honest, they can create a unique bond, and miracles become true, funny, moving.

Themes
Being yourself between fear and courage. No bullying, but friendship & frankness, guts and a big sense of humour. The real thing about chance, magic, ‘meant to be’. Guys and girls are equal, vulnerable, strong.
