'Ever since I can remember, people have always stared at me and my family. Dad tells me it's because we're special. But there's never anyone who looks like us, or my best friend Sangeeta, in my school history books.

But this year, on a trip to learn about the Second World War, I saw my name - my exact name - carved high above a church door, lying beneath a golden lion.'

A powerful journey dealing with buried identities, how history is shaped by those who tell it, and with historic racism.

From the best-selling author of The Boy at the Back of the Class and The Night Bus Hero.
