Dieses Buch ist ein Blick hinter die Kulissen der einzelnen Charaktere und wirft grundlegende Fragen auf. Hätte Linda eine bessere Schulzeit, wenn die Täter ein anderes Leben hätten?

Da Johan flytter ind i nabohuset begynder Kalle at få problemer. Johan har to bidske kamphunde og et voldsomt temperament, og han udser sig Kalle som sit nye mobbeoffer.
