Summary: It is the hottest weekend of the year in Paris. Seventeen-year-old Callum is waiting for the Eurostar home at the end of a French exchange -- a whole two months in the countryside in which he barely spoke any French, made zero friends (except a dog) and did not experience a momentous sexual awakening. Noting happened. Just as the train is about to leave, his phone rings. Callum must choose: What if he doesn't catch the train home? What if he just switches off his phone and walks out into this strange city? What could possibly happen, after two months of nothing, in just forty-eight hours?
