It is wartime, but Adam lives in Peace. At least, that’s what it’s called, the run-down part of town to which he, his mother and other social misfits have been consigned. Adams humdrum life as an errand boy carries on as usual – until Mystery Man Georg appears, along with his set of measuring instruments. From then on no-one can feel safe, and the time is fast approaching when Adam will have to choose sides.
Although this book, Harald Rosenløw Eegs sixth novel for young adults, tells a sad and serious story, it is shot through with hope. An important book that will appeal to a wide range of young readers, All the Doves is an accurate portrayal of how evil – and good – people can actually be.
