Amir encounters rioters on a campsite. They are brothers, eleven and twelve years old, very tough, and seem to love to quarrel. And they just seem to care about themselves.

But before they have time to get too awful and scary, Amir receives help from the Englishman Charles, who is ten years old. He is just as tough and fearless and likes to take the fight with the stupid-skulls.

Despite enormous language difficulties, Charles and Amir become best friends. Amir is bad at English, and Charles has just started learning Swedish.

But they get along very well and have a lot of fun together. All the time, they do fun things, and when they are not fighting with their enemy.

A small quarrel turns into a major war that becomes a snowball effect, and soon disaster strikes. Someone will die if the rescue does not arrive on time.
