Description
England, 2026. The Jones family business is struggling with the aftermath of Brexit – for which Kevin’s parents had voted. Ten years on, the family’s views are still bitterly divided. Will Kevin’s school project help him sort the facts from the opinions? And lead him to what conclusions?
Meanwhile Kevin faces personal challenges. Getting decent GCSE grades, for a start. And then? Will he go along with his dad’s wishes and join the family business? Or follow his own dream of a different future?
His love life is a challenge too: his heart belongs, secretly, to his sister’s best friend in France. Can he find the right words to tell her? In French?!
On the sports field, Kevin is competing with Danny to become top scorer of the season, and their team is making surprising progress in the regional tournament. Could they really have a chance of winning? Danny and Kevin’s other close friends have their own, more serious, challenges to face in the form of racism, islamophobia and homophobia. Can they help each other to win through?
Between hilarious accidents, high drama, emotional revelations, political arguments and insightful reflections, there’s never a dull moment in Kevin’s company!
